文摘星基广播式自动相关监视(ADS-B,automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast)系统是一种新型的航空器监视技术,在未来空中交通管理系统中具有广阔的应用前景。为了深入研究星基ADS-B系统中航空器到卫星的空天链路通信性能,将专业软件Matlab和STK(system tool kit)有效联合,构建符合国际标准的星基ADS-B空天链路完整模型;通过离散事件动态交互模拟ADS-B消息的发送与接收全过程,最后统计得出体现星基ADS-B空天链路通信性能的消息识别概率(POI,possibility of identify)、消息检测概率(POD,possibility of detective)、信号接收功率、信号冲突概率、卫星覆盖范围等指标。仿真结果表明,随着区域内航空器数量上升,POI、POD下降,消息冲突概率上升。
