Package I of ground surveillance / airborne surveillance applications
Ground surveillance applications ATC surveillance for enroute airspace ATC surveillance in terminal areas ATC surveillance in non-radar areas Airport surface surveillance Aircraft derived data for ground tools Airborne surveillance applications 4 airborne traffic situational awareness applications 3 airborne spacing applications
4
ATC surveillance for en-route airspace
Objective: to enhance ATC surveillance currently provided with radars e.g.surveillance areas where single radar coverage provided. Benefits: More accurate position and track prediction (accuracy does not vary with range and bearing) Back-up for radar system Implementation considerations No detrimental impact on flight crew Large network of ground ADS-B receivers Start en-route phased development in low-density
5
ATC surveillance for terminal areas
Objective: to enhance ATC surveillance currently provided with radars e.g. surveillance at low altitude and close to terrain and also in areas of single radar coverage. Benefits: More accurate position and track prediction (accuracy does not vary with range and bearing) Back-up for radar system Implementation considerations No detrimental impact on flight crew Network of ground ADS-B stations in TMA
6
ATC surveillance in non-radar areas
Objective: to provide ATC surveillance in non-radar areas e.g. remote areas, offshore, operation areas, any continental areas and certain oceanic areas, which, due to traffic level or cost of equipment could not justify installation of radars. Benefits: Surveillance with accurate position and track prediction (accuracy does not vary with range and bearing) Controller can provide radar-like separation services instead of procedural Implementation considerations No detrimental impact on flight crew Large network of ground ADS-B receivers
7
Airport surface surveillance
Objective: to provide new source of surveillance information for ground movement management at airports with or without Surface Movement Guidance Control System. Airport ground vehicles can also be fitted with the necessary equipment and displayed on an airport map together with aircraft Benefits: Controllers can provide safer and more efficient surface movement services in low visibility conditions and at night Implementation considerations No detrimental impact on flight crew Could be necessary to equip all aircraft/vehicles
8
Aircraft derived data for ground tools
Objective: to provide additional aircraft derived data through ADS-B for ground applications e.g. ATC displays, conflict detection tools, arrival and departure management tools, ground based safety nets and collaborative decision making applications Benefits: ATC has feedback on such parameters as autopilot selected heading, altitude, and flight management system next waypoints Implementation considerations No detrimental impact on flight crew Harmonisation with other data-link to facilitate integration on-board aircraft e.g. Mode S, ADS-C ADS-B Receiver ground-station

Package I of ground surveillance / airborne surveillance applications
Ground surveillance applications 5 applications Airborne surveillance applications Airborne traffic situational awareness Enhanced traffic situational awareness on the airport surface Enhanced traffic situational awareness during flight operations Enhanced visual acquisition for see & avoid Enhanced visual separation on approach Airborne spacing 3 applications
10
Enhanced traffic situational awareness on the airport surface
Objective: to provide flight crew with an enhanced traffic situational awareness on the airport surface for both taxi and runway operations in all weather conditions Benefits: Flight crew can more easily detect unsafe conditions e.g. conflicts at taxiway crossings, before entering a runway, on pushback) Reduced taxi time in particular during low visibility conditions or at night Implementation considerations Traffic identification needs to be re-visited Essential to display all surrounding relevant traffic
11
Enhanced traffic situational awareness during flight operations
Objective: to provide flight crew with an enhanced traffic situational awareness irrespective of visual conditions Benefits: Flight crews more able to detect unsafe conditions Better flight crew anticipation and understanding reason for ATC instructions Implementation considerations Traffic identification needs to be re-visited Essential to display all surrounding relevant traffic (filtering)
12
Enhanced visual acquisition for see & avoid
Objective: to aid flight crews perform collision avoidance task when separation service not provided by ATC e.g. IFR/VFR in class D and E airspace, class G airspace Benefits: Flight crews better able to detect aircraft in blind spots Improved safety of general aviation or helicopter operations Implementation considerations Benefits proportional to number of aircraft equipped
13
Enhanced visual separation on approach
Objective: to aid flight crews perform successive visual approaches when they are responsible for maintaining visual separation from the aircraft they are following Benefits: Aid to visually acquiring and re-acquiring target Flight crew can efficiently cross-check visually acquired target information e.g. range Perform successive visual approaches on a more regular basis Implementation considerations Only pair-wise equipage required but maximum benefits from all equipped
