ADS-B Integration with LCGS

The Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) Integration effort extends the basic LCGS capability to provide ADS-B surveillance data fused with primary radar data from Low Cost Ground Surveillance (LCGS) to the Controller Display Aid. Utilizing fused SMR and ADS-B data will provide a more accurate position of ground traffic to enhance the situational awareness on the surface. This test and evaluation program will measure the feasibility of each vendor system's capability to ingest ADS-B data and display properly. This will aid in the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA's) recommendation of which LCGS vendor system to endorse.
