    The document provides information about the Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast (ADS-B) system being implemented by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). It describes ADS-B as a surveillance technology that allows aircraft to periodically broadcast their position, altitude, and other information to air traffic control and other aircraft. The FAA's ADS-B program is led by the Surveillance and Broadcast Services Office. The initial implementation of ADS-B will provide surveillance services to pilots and air traffic control to improve safety, capacity and efficiency of the national airspace system.

    Automatic Dependant Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) Description


    Automatic
    Periodically transmits information with no pilot or operator input required Position and velocity vector are derived from the Global Positioning System (GPS) or a Flight Management System (FMS) A method of determining position of aircraft, vehicles, or other assets Transmitted information available to anyone with the appropriate receiving equipment

    Automatic Dependant Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) Description


    The ADS-B system is a crucial component of the Next Generation Air Transportation Systems (NGATS). It provides surveillance and situational awareness simultaneously to pilots and air traffic control facilities. ADS-B is designed to improve the safety, capacity, and efficiency of the National Airspace System (NAS) while providing a flexible and expandable platform to accommodate future air traffic growth.

    Federal Aviation Administration

    ADS-B Description
    Full implementation of ADS-B capabilities requires
    Aircraft avionics equipage (datalink radio and/or display capability) Ground stations supporting datalink to aircraft Integration into existing Air Traffic Control (ATC) automation systems (Micro EARTS, Common ARTS, STARS, ASDE-X, ERAM)

    ADS-B

    Federal Aviation Administration

    ADS-B Data-link
    Two ADS-B links or frequencies are approved by the FAA
    Mode S extended squitter (1090 MHz)
    Used for most commercial aircraft

    Universal Access Transceiver (UAT) (978 MHz)


    Typically used for other aircraft and vehicles

    Dual links may require a multilink or ADSRebroadcast (ADS-R) function to ensure 1090 and UAT users see each other

    Acquisition Strategy (Continued)


    Addresses acquisition approach and total cost of ownership:
    Maximize competition, minimize protests due to patent issues, competition with XM radio style service providers, level playing field for all respondents to RFO, reduce total cost of ownership:
    Performance specification maximizes acquisition alternatives
    FAA awards, owns, and maintains Service Award Performance Based Acquisition can be exploited for the two approaches
