Traffic Information Service - Broadcast (TIS-B)
TIS-B is the broadcast from Ground Radio Stations of ATC derived
trafc information to ADS-B equipped aircraft.
• The actual availability of TIS-B source data depends upon the
availability of ground-based radar.
• Receiving aircraft must be in both ATC radar coverage and ground
based transceiver (GBT) coverage in a given area to receive
TIS-B service in that area. When ownship is above 24,000 ft, the
ground station will no longer provide TIS-B service. (Targets will be
provided up to 27,500 ft)
• Other aircraft are provided by the ground station if within a 15nm
horizontal range and +/-3,500 ft of altitude of the receiving aircraft.
ADS-B equipped ground aircraft and vehicles are not displayed to
airborne aircraft.
• Aircraft not equipped with a transponder, or equipped with a Mode
A only transponder are not part of the TIS-B data and will not be
seen on the trafc display.
• The ground station will not provide display information for Mode
C and Mode S transponder equipped aircraft that do not provide
altitude information.
• An aircraft on the ground receiving TIS-B is provided both ground
aircraft and vehicles as well as airborne other aircraft within 5nm
and 2,000 ft above ground level of the airport reference point.
• The TIS-B service is intended to improve the pilot’s ability to
visually see trafc in the air and on the airport surface so that pilots
can more effectively apply traditional “see-and-avoid” techniques.
• TIS-B does NOT relieve the pilot of responsibility to “see-and-
avoid” other aircraft.
• No avoidance maneuvers are provided for, nor authorized, as a
direct result of a TIS-B other aircraft being displayed in the cockpit.
Avoidance maneuvers must be based on visually acquiring the
target.
