The ADS-B System is the “SUR Sensor” element of an infrastructure supporting ATS Surveillance Service(s), such as the Approach Control and Area Control Services within the European Air Navigation Region. Revision C has been updated to be compliant with the SPI-IR (EU No 1207/2011) for ADS-B ground stations and distributed ADS-B Systems.
