Abstract:

This report documents the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) data collection

and analysis effort to investigate Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR) problems

encountered at the Chicago O'Hare Terminal Approach Control (TRACON) facility.

The FAA has mandated the implementation of Traffic Alert and Collision

Avoidance System (TCAS) II to the entire air transport fleet by December 31,1993.

To provide for the smooth and orderly implementation of TCASII, the TCAS

Transition Program has been established to accomplish these objectives. The FAA

Technical Center Research Directorate for Aviation Technology, ACD-320,

conducted the investigation by developing the data collection system capability

of the Data Link Test and Analysis System (DATAS). Two distinct capabilities

were developed to monitor the uplink and downlink activity of the SSR system

frequencies. The uplink data collection system is an airborne installation of

DATAS on an FAA aircraft and test flights were conducted to obtain the uplink

data. The downlink data collection system was installed at the ground radar

facility to monitor the Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon System (ATCRBS)

receiver signal for downlink analysis. Data results and analysis of both

efforts are documented herein. Contract: T1101F
