ZPR

Advanced Passive Mode 5 L2/2-B + ADS-B Receiver

The uAvionix ZPR integrates advanced Mode 5 Level 2/2-Broadcast IFF and 1090 MHz, 978 MHz UAT ADS-B receiver technologies to deliver comprehensive situational awareness for both military and civil airspace operations. With its robust design, low SWaP (Size, Weight, and Power), and secure cryptographic capabilities, the ZPR is optimized for diverse deployment scenarios including ground, maritime, and airborne installations.

Primary ZPR Features

Comprehensive Multi-Channel Surveillance Reception


ZPR supports simultaneous decoding of multiple surveillance signals, including 1090 MHz Mode S Extended Squitter, 978 MHz UAT ADS-B, and 1090 MHz Mode 5 Level 2 (M5L2 and M5L2-Broadcast). This ensures complete airspace awareness across civil and military environments, whether monitoring friendly assets or detecting unknowns.

Passive IFF with Secure Crypto Integration


When paired with a Mode 5 Crypto Module (KIV-77 or KIV-79), ZPR delivers full Passive Identification Friend or Foe (PIFF) capabilities in compliance with AIMS 04-900(A) Option B. This enables secure, non-emitting identification critical for both contested and cooperative operations.

Additional Features
