The first option to decode ADS-B data is the RTL1090 free software but this is not a unique option.ДЄlthough, I recommend this first option for the decoding software because it brings you more information about what are you receiving in every moment.Д¬reate 2 folders вЂ“ one for RTL1090 and another for the SDR files.Дownload these two zips and extract the files:Д¬opy the files below from the rtl-sdr-release/x32В folder (even if you have a 64-bit machine) to the folder containing the extracted RTL1090 files: If a ADS-B decoding software is using the dongle, no other software can be using the dongle and if you try to open another program, a message will be displayed saying that the device is beign used.ДЄDS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast) is a technology that allows tracking aircrafts using high speed radio transmissions and get data of their position, velocity, heading, altitude, etc.

Note that if you have more than 1 RTL-SDR USB dongle and you want to use them at the same time for different purposes, for example, one to decode ADS-B data and another to listen to FM radio you have to install Zadig in 2 different USB ports. More detailed information is available at : Make sure you choose the вЂњ WinUSB (v.16385)вЂќ driver.ДЄfter installing it if all has gone well, you will be able to use the RTL-SDR dongle with this specific USB port, not the other ports of your laptop, PC, etc.

Now choose вЂњ Bulk-In, Interface (Interface 0)вЂќ or else if your device name is different. Now run the Zadig.exe for your Windows version. Ignore and cancel any Windows messages asking to install the drivers. Insert your USB stick into your USB port. You will need Winzip, Winrar or some other software to extract the files. The download files are compressed using 7-Zip, an open source file compression utility, similar to WinZip or RAR. We need a small software utility called Zadig which can be downloaded from.
