Recently someone told me that the MLAT requires two things:
a) frames ADS-B
b) very accurate-time of receiving each frame (time from GPS)
Accuracy reaches 0.000001 sec...
The USB port has a slight delay, that rtl's devices are useless to the service MLAT.
MLAT need ADS-B receiver hardware-integrated with GPS.
Only this can guarantee a very precise time of received frames.
Can anyone confirm this?
