ABBREVIATIONS AND DEFINITIONS (CONT’D)
g-force the ratio between a given load and the pull
of gravity. For tCaS purposes, G-forces of
an ra could reach ±.25 above/below 1 G
and increase to approximately ±.35 G dur-
ing an increase or reversal of the original
command.
IdENT SPI pulse added to Mode a replies as
method for ground to identify transponder.
Increase Maneuver an increase maneuver is a change of the
original resolution advisory command,
either climb or descent, requiring a greater
rate. the increase maneuver could require
G-forces to reach approximately ±.35 within
2.5 seconds.
Indicated Altitude altitude shown on the altimeter with baro-
metric correction setting set to local sea
level pressure. Used by the crew below
18,000 feet but not used for tCaS process-
ing.
Intruder any aircraft that is in the surveillance range
of tCaS.
LRU Line replaceable Unit. a self-contained
avionics component that can be replaced in
the field.
Mode A Transponder atCrBS transponder that replies to atC
interrogations sending identification code
but without giving altitude data.
Mode C Transponder atCrBS transponder that replies to atC
interrogations giving identification code or
encoded altitude data.
Mode S Transponder transponder that replies to atC interroga-
tions giving an atCrBS identification code,
encoded altitude and other data fields
including aircraft discrete address.
