Abstract
For the future of aviation it is prudent to explore collision avoidance methods that can deliver maximum performance without requiring scientific breakthroughs, exotic methods, or yet-to-be-invented equipment. Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast (ADS-B) is envisioned to be an essential component of future aviation collision avoidance. This paper addresses an alternative ADS-B implementation that uses available provisions (Mode-S and GPS receivers) and existing algorithms and techniques (modern estimation in combination with GPS double differencing). This alternative has many advantages over the current ADS-B implementation, and can be pursued in a low-cost pilot program that will not interfere with ongoing ADS-B efforts.Keywords
