Class Transponder

java.lang.Object
  faa.tg.aircraft.Transponder

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable

public class Transponder
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable

 The transponder class replicates the functionality of the real world
 transponder in the tail of an aircraft. The beacon code and Mode C
 altitude are the primary data managed here.

Constructor.

Transponder

public Transponder(Scenario scenario)

Method Detail

clone

public Transponder clone()

Return a true copy of the Transponder Object.

Overrides:

clone in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

Returns a true copy of the Transponder as an Object.

getBeaconCode

public BeaconCode getBeaconCode()

The following is the accessor method for the transponder beacon code for this aircraft. This is a 4 digit Octal number assigned by ATC to uniquely identify an aircraft (each digit ranges from 0 to 7). The beacon code is stored as a BeaconCode.

Returns:

Transponder code: a 4 digit octal number assigned by ATC to uniquely identify an aircraft (digits range from 0 to 7).

getBeaconCodeStr

public java.lang.String getBeaconCodeStr()

getBeaconCodeInt

public int getBeaconCodeInt()

setBeaconCode

public void setBeaconCode(BeaconCode beaconCode)

setBeaconCode

public void setBeaconCode(int beaconInt)

setBeaconCode

public void setBeaconCode(java.lang.String beaconStr)

setTransmitterOn

public void setTransmitterOn(boolean transmitterOn)

The following are the accessor methods for enabling and disabling the transponder transmitter. Search only targets need to have the transponder turned off.

isTransmitterOn

public boolean isTransmitterOn()

ident

public void ident(Scenario scenario)

Sets ident on and schedules a SimEvent to set ident off in Ident Time seconds.

ident

public void ident(SimulationTime identDuration,
                  Scenario scenario)

Sets ident on and schedules a SimEvent to set ident off in a given amount of time

setIdent

public void setIdent(boolean enable)

Turns ident on and off.

isIdenting

public boolean isIdenting()

Returns true if Transponder is identing; false if not.

setModeC

public void setModeC(boolean enable)

The following are the accessor methods for enabling and disabling the mode C altitude part of the transponder transmitter.

getModeC

public boolean getModeC()

toDraText

public java.lang.String toDraText()

Returns a the transponder information in text format.

Returns:

The transponder information as a String.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a string representation of the transponder information. In general, the toString method returns a String that "textually represents" this object.

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

String a String representation of this object
