Data Link Traffic (Optional) - Garmin Pilot User's Guide for iOS User Manual

DATA LINK TRAFFIC
The GDL 39 is a Bluetooth
GPS, 978 MHz (Universal Access Transceiver frequency band), and 1090 MHz Extended
Squitter (1090 ES) receivers. It is designed to receive, process, and output traffic
(ADS-B air-to-air, and TIS-B traffic information), and weather (Flight Information
Service-Broadcast (FIS-B)) information to Garmin Pilot through Bluetooth.
ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast) is a surveillance technology
deployed across the United States as the cornerstone of the FAA's Next Generation Air
Transportation System (NextGen). ADS-B enables improved surveillance services, both
air-to-air and air-to-ground, especially in areas where radar is ineffective due to terrain
or where it is impractical or cost prohibitive. Initial applications of air-to-air ADS-B are
for "advisory" use only, enhancing a pilot's visual acquisition of other nearby ADS-B
equipped aircraft either when airborne or on the airport surface.
