FAQ n.141891

Will ADS-L be interoperable with existing ADS-B and Mode S transponders?

Answer

Certified ADS-B and Mode S transponders will not be upgradeable in the near future to integrate ADS-L. However, new and simple devices receiving both ADS-B and ADS-L will appear on the market, facilitating data exchange and enhancing situational awareness. The interoperability of ADS-L with existing systems will enable a more comprehensive and accurate picture of the traffic in the airspace, improving safety and reducing the risk of collisions.
