🔍 Key Concepts

• Mode C transponder operation and what information it provides to ATC • Typical antenna types used on aircraft for L-band transponder frequencies (around 1 GHz) • The meaning of omnidirectional vs directional antennas for ATC surveillance

💭 Think About

• Which type of antenna pattern makes the most sense for an aircraft that can bank, turn, and change attitude but must still be seen by ATC radar in all directions? • Look at the frequency 1030 MHz: which general band is that in, and what antenna styles are commonly used there on aircraft fuselages? • Which options sound more like ground‑based radar or navigation aids rather than a simple airframe-mounted transponder antenna?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which options are omnidirectional versus directional in nature • Check which antenna types are commonly mounted externally on aircraft fuselages for transponders • Confirm which option explicitly matches the L‑band frequency range that includes 1030 MHz and 1090 MHz
