Abstract
This paper advances the concept of using slightly modified commercial ground broadcast TV signals to aid in tracking aircraft at low altitud e near major airports. The modification of the TV signal is not major and will not affect normal TV operation. The resulting system should b e of utility in augmenting air traffic control and could provide an im portant dual service role for commercial TV ground broadcast.
