Immobilisers

The amount of thefts from cars began to decrease as car immobilisers became increasingly popular in the late 1990s. However the criminals are always looking for ways to get around security systems.

Transponders

A transponder sends an identifying signal when it is questioned. This helps to maintain a clear line between aircrafts and signals an aircraft to air traffic controllers when it is operating a radar system. The information that the transponder transmits back is different according to the kind of system.

Transponders are also present in satellites and spacecraft to connect with Earth systems like cell phone networks or other networks for communication. They receive signals at a range frequencies and then retransmit the signals using a different spectrum, similar to how repeaters on land-based cell phone networks operate.

Often sophisticated passive transponders can be located on aircraft. They monitor flight status and provide navigational information such as the aircraft’s position and speed, as well as altitude. Transponders transmit information that air traffic controllers use to manage flight paths and ensure security.

A lot of personal keys have transponder chips in addition to transponders for aircraft. These chips are non-active and do not require batteries. This allows the ECU to detect the transponder signal once it is inserted into the ignition lock.

A majority of aircrafts have a button on the flight deck, which allows pilots to turn on and off their transponders. They can also select an "ident" mode that allows the transponder to broadcast its unique squawk codes. This makes it stand out on a busy air-traffic control screen.
