requirements for the aircraft to continue operation on another MODE.) Figure 14-43. Transponder phraseology. Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast (ADS-B) Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is a surveillance technology being deployed throughout the NAS to facilitate improvements needed ... increase the capacity and efficiency of the NAS, while maintaining safety. ADS-B supports these improvements by providing a higher update rate and enhanced accuracy of surveillance information over the current radar-based surveillance system. In addition, ADS-B enables…

vision and atmospheric lighting all affect our ability to detect another aircraft. Best practices to see and avoid: • ADS-B In is an effective system to help pilots see and avoid other aircraft. If your aircraft is equipped with ADS ... their normal traffic scan to provide awareness of nearby aircraft. Prior to taxiing onto an airport movement area, ADS-B In can provide advance indication of arriving aircraft and aircraft in the traffic pattern. Systems that incorporate a trafficalerting feature…
