ADS-B OUT in Brazil
Non-exhaustive groups:
1. Operational Challenges
2. Technical Challenges
3. Management Challenges
Project Challenges for the full operationalization of Continental ADS-B
a) Detail the objectives/actual benefits for the ATM and for aviation;
b) Define the Airspace for operationalization and its complexity – phased operationalization? Best
Equipped Best Served?;
c) Define the minimum separation between aircrafts to be applied;
d) Evaluate the standards in force, identify those that will be impacted, edit new publications (eg:
AIP, AIC...);
e) Evaluate the impact of the use of ADS-B on the Operational Doctrine for the ATC;
f) Assess the need for an Operational Training for ATCO and Simulations;
g) Define the version of ADS-B to be adopted – the version to be adopted must be aligned with
the desired operation and with regional/global interoperability strategies;
Project Challenges for the full operationalization of Continental ADS-B
h) Assess of which RNP and ADS-B requirements with GNSS will enable the required operations;
i) Develop ATC doctrine for handling GNSS unavailability occurrences (NOTAM?);
j) Assess how will the GNSS availability prediction information be presented and handled by
ATCO;
k) Define the airspace access strategy: Mandate x airspace access priority for aircraft with
operational ADS-B equipment?;
l) If there is ADS-B-OUT Mandate: delimit the Airspace, define the start date, inform what
requirements for ADS-B avionics are necessary to fly in the designated airspace;
m) ADS-B Risk Assessment;

2. Technical Challenges
a) Defines the technical and logistical requirements for the infrastructure that meet the
operational demand;
b) Recognize the standards to be adopted: ref. MOPS, TSO, AC, RTCA, Doc;
c) Define acceptable NIC, NACp, NuC, SiL requirements – in line with desired operation;
d) Define the required RNP (NACp, NiC, SiL values for GNSS support the definition of RNP);
e) Define how requirements monitoring will take place;
f) Definition of valid thresholds (to be accepted) for the airspace of interest (in Route and/or in
Terminal;
g) ADS-B Spectrum security – assessment of spectrum security and congestion in the medium and
long term;

3. Management Challenges
g) Coordinate reviews (as necessary) of avionics certification processes and crew operational
approval,
h) Planning for a technical-operational TRIAL under appropriate conditions;
i) Develop appropriate post-implementation monitoring and review processes;
j) Establish a methodology for continuous reporting of monitoring results of incidents, events,
observations on ADS-B operations.
