  Transponder - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Another example of transponders is in identification friend or foe systems and air traffic control secondary surveillance radar (beacon radar) systems.
Most transponders are also able to transmit altitude information and a four digit code known as a transponder code or a “squawk code” to help air traffic controllers in separation.
Sonar transponders operate under water are used to measure distance through water and form the basis of underwater location marking, position tracking and navigation.

 atrexx - Satellite Transponder
Transponders were originally electronic circuits that were attached to some item whose position or presence was to be determined.
A satellite transponder is a circuit on a satellite that receives, modulates, amplifies and re-transmits an uplinked signal.
Typical bandwidths of a transponder are 27, 33, 36, 54 and 72 MHz.

 Transponder Signals and Prefix Codes
Transponder codes can be extremely useful when a group of ships are acting together, since they enable the fleet's commander to instantly identify each vessel under his or her command and to see exactly how they are deployed.
Transponders are not intended to allow anybody and everybody to locate a ship; cloaked vessels, for example, do not transmit them.
Transponders are invaluable in this kind of situation, because if a ship is severely damaged it may not be generating any of the energy signatures that can be used to locate vessels.

TRANSPONDERS WILL BE USED AS OFFICIAL TIMING IN THE 2002 RACING SEASON
  (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The transponder number is the single unique identifying signature for all cars as they pass the loop - all other information like driver, number, class, etc. are associated with that one transponder.
When a rechargeable transponder starts to flash amber the rechargeable unit has less than 24 hours left on the charge and needs to be recharged.
The timing for each lap will begin the first time the transponder passes over the loop, and the lap time will be calculated based on the difference in time until the next time the transponder passes over the loop.

 Transponder Technology
Electric coupled transponder systems are not limited to small areas for transmission but can transmit messages or signals for different ranges of distance including several inches to miles, as used in Satellites and Airplanes.These systems require large amounts of constant electricity to operate.
Since Magnetic Coupled Transponders do not have their own power source they are very limited to range of communication and generally operate in the range of 1cm to 15cm.
Transponders can be made into several different shapes and sizes and can be used in many different types of applications such as: warehouse pallets, retail clothing, animal management, and of course electronic automobile key identification.

 Transponder Operation, Darren Smith, Flight Instructor, Tampa, Florida, CFI Homepage
Transponders substantially increase the capability of radar to see an aircraft and the MODE C feature enables the controller to quickly determine where potential traffic conflicts may exist.
Civil and military transponders should be adjusted to the "on" or normal operating position as late as practicable prior to takeoff and to "off" or "standby" as soon as practicable after completing landing roll, unless the change to "standby" has been accomplished previously at the request of ATC.
The manner in which transponder panels are designed differs, therefore, a pilot should be thoroughly familiar with the operation of the transponder so that ATC may realize its full capabilities.

 Improved Transponder for Earth/Spacecraft Communication
The overall function of the transponder is to receive an S-band signal (uplink signal) from the ground, demodulate the signal to extract command and control information, and generate a return carrier signal modulated by either ranging or telemetry data to be transmitted back to the ground (downlink signal).
The transponder must phase-lock to the received uplink signal, determine frequency of the received carrier, and generate the return carrier signal at a frequency of exactly 240/221 times that of the received carrier signal.
The transponder can also detect whether the carrier-tracking loop has locked to a sideband and, if so, can automatically correct the operation of the affected oscillators to cause the loop to lock on the desired uplink carrier signal.

 Transponder - Memory Alpha
A transponder is a device onboard a starship, starbase or other spacecraft, which broadcasts a signal identifying that craft by name, design and allegience.
Transponders can be deactivated or have their details forged however; the existence or absence of a transponder signal is not proof-positive of a craft's identity or existence.
For this reason transponder signals can include some kind of code proving to those 'in-the-know' that the signal is geniune.

 Transponder Key discription
The use of vehicle transponders was introduced as a result of the German Insurance bodies refusing to underwrite vehicles that did not have some form of passive electronic immobilisation.
As the transponder contains a tuned circuit matched to the frequency of the RF burst, a small voltage is generated by induction within the transponder chip.
Having two transponder keys on the same key ring or in close proximity to the ignition cylinder when starting the vehicle can cause both keys to emit their codes at the same time, and cause the processor/interrogator to fail to accept either code.
