Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is introduced to aid the commercial space flight operations, accommodate space vehicles transitioning through the National Airspace System (NAS), seamlessly integrate the future space transportation system with the air transportation system, and minimize space vehicles impacts and potential hazards on the NAS. A feasibility study is conducted to show ADS-B is capable of supporting space flight operations by examining ADS-B-related system issues and technical issues individually. A potential ADS-B space-oriented message set is proposed to be exclusively transmitted from space vehicles to other traffic and air traffic controllers. A simulation is performed to test the functionality of the message set, and sensitivity of three ADS-B system parameters, which are message update rate, data latency, and state vector accuracy. |
