Abstract:Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Technical Center Data Link project
personnel designed, developed, and deployed a system to record Traffic Alert
and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) activity. Through coordinated efforts with
TCAS project personnel, the Data Link project design team modified the existing
Data Link Test and Analysis System (DATAS) to perform as the TCAS monitor. This
report describes the installation at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).
The purpose was to identify aircraft which were reporting illegal Mode S ID's.
The system was configured to store all interrogation/reply activity in order to
establish a data base which could be used to later investigate anomalies at a
later time if desired. All transactions were "time tagged" so that data could be
correlated with independent surveillance data from systems such as the Automated
Radar Terminal system (ARTS) III, ARTS II or Airport Surveillance Radar (ASR)-9.
