摘要：There is a growing dependence of critical and safety-of-life systems on the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). GNSS interference events can cause severe impacts on aircraft safety, including unavailability of GNSS-based landing services. Therefore, it is important to be able to identify, localize, and remove interference sources that may cause these impacts. This project concentrates on events that affect the the airport environment and aims to provide improved situational awareness and safety for local airspace users. This paper contains three main sections: OpenSky ADS-B data processing, interference event characterization, and interference source localization. Specifically, we identified and removed incorrect timestamps from ADS-B ground receivers. We characterized the impact of interference events based on reported interference events that occurred at a San Francisco bay area airport. In addition, we designed a convex optimization model for localizing the interference sources given the ADS-B measurement. This article looks at common characteristics caused by the impact of interference events and shows a possible way to localize interference sources using ADS-B data.
