WARNING

TIS AND TAS CANNOT GIVE ALERTS FOR TRAFFIC

CONFLICTS FOR TARGET AIRCRAFT WITHOUT OPERATING

TRANSPONDERS.

Traffic Information System (TIS) coverage is limited to specific areas

listed in the Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM). TIS uses a ground

surveillance--based radar system that provides traffic advisories and

proximity alerts to aircraft equipped with mode A, C, and S

transponders with an altitude encoder and a means to display the

airborne traffic.

A traffic advisory or proximity alert is given to a TIS--equipped aircraft

by a ground--based surveillance radar system. TIS provides relative

bearing, relative range, relative altitude, heading, altitude trends, and

traffic status (threatening or proximity) of up to eight intruder aircraft

within a specified TIS airspace volume.

NOTE: See the AIM for detailed information about TIS requirements,

capabilities, and limitations.

Traffic Awareness System (TAS) is an active, self--contained system

that detects other aircraft with mode 3A transponders. TAS provides

traffic advisories and proximity alerts for any aircraft equipped with a

transponder, anywhere it flies.
