Traffic collision avoidance system

Traffic alert and collision avoidance system (TCAS; /ˈtiːkæs/ TEE-kas), also called an airborne collision avoidance system (ACAS), is an aircraft collision avoidance system designed to reduce the incidence of mid-air collision (MAC) between aircraft. It monitors the airspace around an aircraft for other aircraft equipped with a corresponding active…
