Clearedtoenter, ADS-B is radio waves so line-of-sight just like radar and has exactly the same range and coverage - if every aircraft were suitably equipped you could one-for-one replace radar with ADS-B ground stations.

swh, are you confusing ADS-B with ADS-C? Or something else? The 787 ADS-B works perfectly well here in Australia and not just the local ones.
