摘要
This disclosure is directed to weather radar (40A,B) configured to act as a communication device to allow real time data communication. This disclosure describes using weather radar on board aircraft as a high bandwidth X-band radio for communication. The X-band weather radar is used for receiving flight related data and weather-related data while still acting as a weather radar. As the weather radar system is already present on most commercial aircraft, there is no requirement for additional hardware, devices or equipment onboard the aircraft to meet the data communication needs. An airport may install an X-band data transmitter to broadcast digital data received from detection systems at or near an airport such as an Automated Weather Observing System (AWOS), predictive wind shear (PWS) and bird strike warning systems.
