scope:
This document supersedes DO-242 and provides an up-to-date view of the system-wide operational use of ADS-B. This revised ADS-B MASPS concentrates on four major areas of development: 1) Separating the accuracy and integrity components of the Navigation Uncertainty Category (NUC) into the new fields Navigation Accuracy (NAC) and Navigation Integrity Category (NIC); 2) Reorganization of the State Vector, Mode-Status, and On-condition reports; 3) Restructuring the content and manner in which intent information is broadcast; and 4) Clarification that system requirements at the MASPS level are based on operational ranges and not particular applications.
