Agenda ADS-B Out Mandate Rule Performance Monitoring ADS-B Performance Monitor ADS-B No Services List Other Uses of ADS-B Data Exemption 12555 2
ADS-B Out Mandate Rule info Published rule in May 2010, with mandate set for January 1, 2020 Requires ADS-B equipment in specified airspace ( 91.225) Equipment must meet specified performance requirements ( 91.227) FAA has ground infrastructure in place 634+ ground radio stations Integrated ADS-B data into 5 ATC automation platforms FAA is ready Mandate won t slip 3
ADS-B Out Rule Performance Monitoring Rule performance monitoring via ADS-B Performance Monitor (APM) APM enables FAA regulatory oversight of all ADS-B Out operations within rule airspace and additional service coverage areas 4
AMBULANCE AM BULA NCE System Concept SBS ADS-B Performance Monitor Activity Reports Equipage Reports FAA Ground Station Receiver Network ADS-B TIS-B Aircraft & Vehicle Exception Reports Aircraft & Vehicle Performance Scorecards Service Volume Summary Metrics Flight Plan SAPT Aircraft & Vehicle Operations 5
APM Functions & Capabilities APM Functions & Capabilities: Collects performance data on all ADS-B Out operations in US airspace 6
APM Functions & Capabilities APM Functions & Capabilities: Mandate equipage & avionics performance tracking Avionics & Repair Station (RS) Registry Associates ADS-B avionics equipage (transmitter/gps make/model) to each aircraft Associates installer (RS ID or A&P #) to each aircraft ADS-B Trend Analysis Tool (ATAT): Summary of avionics performance for up to last 10 flights for each ADS-B equipped aircraft monitored Supports trend analysis of aircraft M/M, avionics M/M, installer, etc 7
APM Functions & Capabilities Generates ADS-B performance reports/data in support of various stakeholder needs: FAA ADS-B equipage & performance reporting Avionics certification flight tests Regulatory oversight requirements Public Public ADS-B Performance Report service (PAPR) Aircraft & avionics manufacturers 8
APM Functions & Capabilities PAPR supports public post-installation compliance verification Web-based PAPR: https://adsbperformance.faa.gov/paprrequest.aspx Email: 9-AWA-AFS-300-ADSB-AvionicsCheck@faa.gov Certification reports support ADS-B certification flight tests per AC 20-165() Email: 9-avs-air-130flttest@FAA.gov 9
ADS-B No Services Aircraft List (NSAL) FAA to implement NSAL to prevent hazardous ADS-B data processing within ATC automation systems NSAL aircraft are not eligible to receive ATC services based on ADS-B data (services still provided if radar coverage available and aircraft is appropriately equipped) NSAL aircraft will not be eligible for TIS-B services NSAL will be governed (listing and removal) by SMEs from ATO & AVS 10
Other Uses of ADS-B Data RVSM NPRM - ADS-B equipped no longer require FAA authorization to conduct RVSM operations ADS-B data & localized meteorological data used to conduct NASwide RVSM height monitoring Possible reduction in scope of 91.413 transponder test requirements Use of ADS-B data (1090ES) to continuously verify performance of certain transponder functions and eliminate them from 24-month inspection requirements 11
