ADS-B
Link Decision Workshops
The
FAA and Industry held public meetings on 6 June 2001, 25 - 26 June 2001, and 19
October 2001
to:
1.
Share
information concerning the use of Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast
(ADS-B) as a surveillance technology;
2.
Address
the technical, manufacturing, and implementation aspects and issues of ADS-B;
and
3.
Gain
better insight into avionics implementation costs and feasibility associated
with ADS-B.
Meeting
1: June 6, 2001
The
purpose of the June 6, 2001 meeting was to:
- Review
how the FAA sees the use of ADS-B as a surveillance technology;
- Review
the progress made by the FAA defining ADS-B configurations and applications;
- Review
the technical evaluations, simulations and benefits analysis recently
completed; and
- Review
ongoing related work by the FAA
The
expected outcome of the June 6, 2001 meeting was to give avionics and aircraft
manufacturers and airspace users enough information for the follow-up meeting on
June 25-26, 2001 where participants could help the FAA gain better insight into
avionics implementation costs and feasibility.

Meeting
2: June 25 - 26, 2001
The
purpose of the June 25 – 26, 2001 meeting was to discuss with avionics and
aircraft manufacturers the issues and costs associated with implementing ADS-B
alternatives and configurations. The
FAA has the ground-based cost information, but needs the avionics implementation
cost information to make the ADS-B link decision which was initially planned for September 2001.

Meeting 3: October
19, 2001
The
purpose of the October 19, 2001 meeting was to: (1) review the most recent
results of the evaluations of the alternative ADS-B link technologies and
architectures versus the required functional, performance and operational
capabilities; (2) review the results of the economic assessments of the core set
of alternate ADS-B link architecture scenarios. The meeting objective was
to provide the aviation industry better insight into the factors that are
expected to be the basis for the future FAA decision on the ADS-B link
architecture.
