Introduction to ADS-B

Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast

ADS-B Ground Stations

Position Velocity Identity Altitude Heading Vertical Rate Accuracy/Integrity ACAS data Emergency Status and SPI Selected altitude

Distinctive ADS-B Features

Radar Type Co-operative (Needs on-board equipment)

Dependent (Depends on on-board equipment for position)

Primary

SSR (Mode-C)

Mode-S

ADS-B

Price Ease of Installation Low Maintenance High Position Accuracy Depends on aircraft

equipment Security issues Air-borne Surveillance

ADS-B Applications

Ground Surveillance Applications (ADS-B-out)

ADS-B Receiver

In a non-radar environment (NRA)

In a radar environment (RAD) On the airport surface (APT) Airborne Derived Data (ADD)

Airborne Surveillance Applications (ADS-B-in)

Situational awareness on the surface (SURF) Airborne situational awareness (AIRB) Visual separation on approach (VSA) In Trail Procedure (ITP) Sequencing & Merging (S+M)

AVT Introduction – What is AVT ?

ADS-B/TIS-B Validation Test A surveillance platform modeling the future European ATC

surveillance system Real-Time Surveillance Data Processing Data Analysis Tools Standard Interfaces (ASTERIX) to:

Air Traffic Simulators ATC Systems External Surveillance sensors

In order to support CASCADE in: ADS-B/TIS-B Technology verification ADS-B/TIS-B Application validation

Live Surveillance Data Processing ASTERIX CAT062 (System Tracks / Tracker Output)) ASTERIX CAT021 (ADS-B data / Ground Station Output)

Multi-stream display Simultaneous display of multiple sources Independent track stores

Flight Search and Highlight Function Search criteria : Callsign, SSR Code, Mode-S Address

eDEP in AVTPilot Manager

ASTERIX CAT244 Output to Surveillance Sensor Simulator For each simulated aircraft

De-coupling of Pilot position and CWP

eDEP in AVTeCockpit

ASTERIX CAT244 Output to Surveillance Sensor Simulator

ASTERIX CAT021 Input for display on Navigation Display To simulate ADS-B Reception

ASTERIX CAT062 Input for display on Navigation Display To simulate TIS-B Reception

eDEP at local validation sites

Validation Infrastructure based on AVT is installed at local validation sites

eDEP currently installed and used for pre-operational validation Rhodes (Greece) Trabzon (Turkey)

eDEP planned to be used Faial (Azores) and Lisbon

eDEP at Rhodes APP Positions

eDEP in Trabzon Tower

Future Development

ADS/B APT Validation Need for Airport maps and HMI. Seek synergy with airport eDEP HMI

implementations. Process ASTERIX A-SMGCS data Process ASTERIX Multi-Lat Data
