Description / Abstract:
This document contains requirements for interfacing ADS-B
avionics to on-board position sources such as GPS and Flight
Management Systems. Proper integration and installation of ADS-B
equipment into aircraft is essential to successful implementation
of ADS-B air-to-ground and air-to-air applications. The
Surveillance Transmit Processing (STP) subsystem prepares the
required surveillance information from on-board aircraft sensors
for the ADS-B Transmit Subsystem. STP is a critical subsystem of
the end-to-end system defined in the Minimum Aviation System
Performance Standards (MASPS) for Aircraft Surveillance Application
(ASA), (RTCA DO-289). The standards defined in this version of the
STP MOPS have been scoped to support parameters required for five
applications defined in the ASA MASPS:
- Enhanced Visual Acquisition (EVAcq)
- Conflict Detection (CD)
- Airport Surface Situational Awareness (ASSA)
- Final Approach and Runway Occupancy Awareness (FAROA)
- Enhanced Visual Approach (EVApp)
