Abstract :
In this paper, implementation results of a surveillance test-bed in Taean airport by ADS-B concepts is described in detail. The surveillance test-bed consists of ADS-B transponders adopting VDL based on STDMA protocol, CDTIs for aircraft pilots, ground vehicle drivers and air traffic controllers. Surveillance functions of ADS-B system such as runway incursion prevention, conflict warning and way-point assignment are evaluated in this test-bed. Quantitative evaluation is accomplished by comparison between conventional voice communications and surveillance functions of the ADS-B system through ground test and flight test, respectively. The most significance of this study is not only the reduction of data link occupancy but also alleviation of human factors for safe flight.
