1. A secondary surveillance radar system comprising a ground system which observes an observation area where an aircraft equipped with a mode S transponder and an aircraft equipped with an ATCRBS transponder possibly coexist, wherein the ground system comprises:

  • a transmit processor which transmits to the observation area an all-call interrogation signal specific for mode S including an identification code of the ground system;

    a receive processor which receives a reply signal to the interrogation signal transmitted by the transmit processor; and

    a recognition processor which recognizes the reply signal as a processing target when identification information included in the reply signal received by the receive processor coincides with the identification code of the ground system, and wherein the recognition processor recognizes the reply signal as the processing target also when the identification information included in the reply signal received by the receive processor coincides with null information.
