Physical Description
A. General
This manual contains descriptive information about the TPL-100A Processor (MILACAS-FR
Processor). The components associated with the MILACAS-FR system are shown in Figure

The MILACAS-FR Processor uses Mode S extended squitter to support passive
surveillance. Extended squitter permits a decreased traffic alert and collision avoidance
system (TCAS) interrogation rate. The TCAS aircraft receives the global positioning system
(GPS) location information of the intruder target. This concept is called Automatic
Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B). The use of this extended squitter lowers
interrogation rates in the TCAS signal environment.

The MILACAS-FR Processor also performs formation flight functions. The MILACAS-FR
uses a standard TCAS antenna system. It combines the functions of TCAS and formation
flight subsystems into one unit.

flight subsystems into one unit.
The TCAS and formation flight systems share the same hardware. The software is
partitioned into two systems. The two systems are capable of separate control and function.
The MILACAS-FR system supports formation position keeping.

MILACAS-FR gives the TCAS function and situational awareness for 53 aircraft within 60
nautical miles. The maximum formation is dependent on the installation and operational
concept.

System Description
A. TCAS
TCAS performs the collision avoidance function when it actively interrogates nearby aircraft
with Mode S and ATCRBS Mode C altitude interrogations. The intruder aircraft replies to
TCAS interrogations and sends the parameters that follow:
