Abstract
The steadily increasing air traffic in particular on transoceanic routes requires extending controlled airspace to those regions not yet covered by ground based surveillance. In this paper the authors present the world´s first in-orbit demonstration of a space based ADS-B system, hosted on the ESA satellite PROBA-V.
