Definition
system where multiple aircraft collaborate and share surveillance information between themselves and/or a ground-based network to enhance situational awareness, improve safety, and optimize airspace utilization
NOTE 1 An “air navigation service provider (ANSP)” (3.1.3) can utilize a cooperative surveillance system and a flight information display (FID) to support the provision of flight information service (FIS). In addition to the aircraft position, a FID is normally expected to display aircraft flight identification (callsign or aircraft registration), aircraft type, altitude and speed.
NOTE 2 Cooperative surveillance relies on aircraft having a functioning electronic conspicuity capability which is appropriate to the particular cooperative surveillance system. Typical examples of equipment used are “automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B)” (3.1.19) and “secondary surveillance radar (SSR)” (3.1.121) transponders which operate on licensed aeronautical “radio frequency (RF)” (3.1.114) frequency bands. Some systems also utilize a cellular network.
