The requirements and characteristics of ADSB traffic surveillance applications continue to evolve and mature. Later this year, RTCA will release the Aircraft Surveillance Applications (ASA) Minimum Aviation System Performance Standards (MASPS), and a joint RTCA/EUROCAE ASA MASPS Revision A is expected to follow. The ASA MASPS initially identified the following applications: Enhanced Visual Acquisition, Enhanced Visual Approach, Airport Surface Situational Awareness(ASSA), Final Approach and Runway Occupancy Awareness (FAROA), Conflict Detection (CD), Approach Spacing for Instrument Approaches(ASIA), Airborne Conflict Management(ACM), and Independent Closely Spaced Parallel Approaches (ICSPA). These applications are expected to enhance safety, increase aviation efficiency and increase capacity. The release of the ASA MASPS will accelerate standards development of these and other applications. Rockwell Collins has been actively involved in the development and flight testing of several airport surface and terminal area traffic surveillance applications. A Cockpit Display of Traffic Information (CDTI) capable of displaying ADS-B, TIS-B, and TCAS targets, coupled with an airport surface moving map was developed under the FAA Test and Evaluation of Surveillance and Information System (TESIS) program and was flight tested in Memphis, TN. The airport surface moving map displays own-ship position and other aircraft positions overlaid on a map of the airport surface. The CDTI and moving map applications were also prototyped and evaluated for human factors considerations on a portable PC-based computer. A partnership with Rannoch and NASA Langley resulted in a Runway Incursion Alerting application that utilized our CDTI and moving map display. This effort was evaluated with pilots in a flight simulator environment. Another partn
