Squitter
Squitter is a term relating to random pulses, pulse-pairs and other non-solicited messages used in various aviation radio systems. Squitter pulses were originally, and are still, used in the DME/TACAN air navigation systems. Squitter pulses, because of their randomness, appear the same as unsolicited/unsynchronised replies to other interrogating aircraft, as they are identical. Primarily, squitter is used to maintain a regular signal from the ground beacon. In the TACAN system, signal strength variation due to rotation of the transmitting beam, determines the course bearing function. in case of a lack of interrogating aircraft. In the Mode S secondary surveillance radar system, 'squitter' is a term used to describe messages that are unsolicited downlink transmissions from an automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast Mode S transponder system. Mode S transponders transmit acquisition squitter to permit passive acquisition by interrogators with broad antenna beams, where active acquisition may be hindered by all-call synchronous garble. Examples of such interrogators are an airborne collision avoidance system and an airport surface system.
