SECTION 7: SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
ADS-B SYSTEM
The ADS-B Out system consists of a GPS receiver
connected to the transponder which broadcasts the
aircraft’s position, identification, and certain other
parameters to air traffic control. ADS-B data is broadcast
via the Extended Squitter (ES) feature of the transponder
on a frequency of 1090 MHz. Note that change of aircraft
registration may require update of pre-programmed
parameters by qualified maintenance personnel.
Most of the data required for ADS-B broadcast such
as aircraft type, ICAO address, and call sign are pre-
programmed at installation. Flight-specific data such
as Mode 3/A code and IDENT are entered using the
transponder controls. The transponder uses these codes
simultaneously for standard transponder as well as
ADS-B broadcasts. There is no need to make a second
code entry or to enter a code more than once. This is
known as a “single point of entry” ADS-B system.
The ADS-B In system consists of a receiver mounted
under the left, front seat connected to a moving map
GPS with software capable of displaying the received
ADS-B In data. The receiver receives both approved US
ADS-B frequencies (978 MHz and 1090 MHz).
