  2. Transponder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transponder

    The user of the car may not even be aware that the transponder is there, because there are no buttons to press. When a key is inserted into the ignition lock cylinder and turned, the car's computer sends a signal to the transponder. Unless the transponder replies with a valid code, the computer will not allow the engine to be started.

  3. Radio-frequency identification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-frequency_identification

    Radio-frequency identification ( RFID) uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags attached to objects. An RFID system consists of a tiny radio transponder called a tag, a radio receiver, and a transmitter. When triggered by an electromagnetic interrogation pulse from a nearby RFID reader device, the tag transmits ...

  4. Transponder (satellite communications) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transponder_(satellite...

    A communications satellite 's transponder is the series of interconnected units that form a communications channel between the receiving and the transmitting antennas. [ 1] It is mainly used in satellite communication to transfer the received signals. A transponder is typically composed of: an input band-limiting device (an input band-pass ...

  5. Traffic collision avoidance system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_collision...

    A traffic alert and collision avoidance system ( TCAS, pronounced / tiːkæs /; TEE-kas) is an aircraft collision avoidance system designed to reduce the incidence of mid-air collision (MAC) between aircraft. It monitors the airspace around an aircraft for other aircraft equipped with a corresponding active transponder, independent of air ...

  6. Identification friend or foe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identification_friend_or_foe

    Identification, friend or foe ( IFF) is a combat identification system designed for command and control. It uses a transponder that listens for an interrogation signal and then sends a response that identifies the broadcaster. IFF systems usually use radar frequencies, but other electromagnetic frequencies, radio or infrared, may be used. [1]

    The green IDENT button is marked "ID". A transponder (short for trans mitter-res ponder [1] and sometimes abbreviated to XPDR, [2] XPNDR, [3] TPDR [4] or TP [5]) is an electronic device that produces a response when it receives a radio-frequency interrogation. Aircraft have transponders to assist in identifying them on air traffic control radar.

  8. Advanced Civil Speed Enforcement System - Wikipedia

    Lack of a second speed limit below signal speed indicates ACSES is not in service. Advanced Civil Speed Enforcement System ( ACSES) is a positive train control cab signaling system developed by Alstom. [1] The system is designed to prevent train -to-train collisions, protect against overspeed, and protect work crews with temporary speed ...
