Abstract The report present cost estimates and technical performance projections for ten aircraft surveillance architectures. The architectures are intended for use in the en route flight domain, and are comprised of various combinations of Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Braodcast (ADS-B). Monopulse Secondary Surveillance Radar (MSSR), and multilateration systems. Cost estimates are developed for use in comparing technologies (rather than specific programs). Technical performance information is presented in the areas of coverage, accuracy, and capacity.
