Due to lack of equipment, poor signal reception, and/or inaccurateinformation from other aircraft, traffic may be present but not represented on the display.ADS-B SYSTEM OVERVIEWAutomatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is a core technology in the FAA NextGen air trafficcontrol system. It offers improved surveillance services, both air-to-air and air-to-ground, especially in areaswhere radar coverage is ineffective due to terrain, or where it is impractical or cost prohibitive. ADS-B iscomprised of three segments for the purposes of providing traffic information: ADS-B (Broadcast), ADS-R(Rebroadcast), and Traffic Information Service-Broadcast (TIS-B).ADS-B includes the automatic broadcast of position reports by aircraft, surface vehicles, and transmitters onfixed objects. These broadcasts contain information such as GPS position, identity (Flight ID, Call Sign, TailNumber, ICAO registration number, etc.), ground track, ground speed, pressure altitude, and emergency status.18,000 FT10,000 FTGPSRADAR ATC1090 ESUATRADARCompositeADS-B Ground Station (ADS-R,TIS-B, FIS-B)Mode A/C1090 ES1090 ESUAT UATUATFigure 6-73 ADS-B SystemFor the purpose of distinguishing between levels of ADS-B service, there are three classifications of aircraft orsystem capability: ADS-B In, ADS-B Out, and ADS-B participating. ADS-B In refers to the capability to receiveADS-B information. ADS-B Out refers to the capability to transmit ADS-B information. ADS-B participatingrefers to the capability to both send and receive ADS-B information. Aircraft lacking either ADS-In, ADS-B Out,or both ADS-B capabilities may also be referred to as ADS-B nonparticipating aircraft.
