SLIDE 1Introduction• Satellite Navigation: Navigation from the Space
– Global and seamless navigation primarily for air and sea.– Available Anywhere and Anytime.– Typically using L-band navigation signals.
• GNSS and Augmentation System– GNSS: Basic navigation function giving the position fixes.
Available with user’s own risk: No guarantee if the position fixes are correct.– Augmentation systems: Guarantee of the correctness.
Some applications require ‘Integrity’ of position fixes: GNSS Integrity Channel. As well as integrity, improves the accuracy of position fixes.
• SBAS: Satellite-Based Augmentation System– International standard GNSS augmentation system.
US WAAS, Japanese MSAS, European EGNOS, and Indian GAGAN.– Current situation and future perspectives.

BroadSky Workshop, Sept. 2019
SLIDE 3Satellite Navigation• Nationwide navigation system
– A satellites could transmit navigation signals to the half of the globe, while the coverage of ground-based navigation facilities is limited within 200 to 400 km.
– The first artificial satellite ‘Sputnik’ launched in 1957. The first two applications in the context:
Communication and Navigation.– NNSS (Navy Navigation Satellite System) in 1964.
The first satellite navigation system served for marine.
• GNSS: Global Navigation Satellite System– The system of 20-30 navigation satellites: Most MEO satellites, some
optional GEO satellites.Regional system possible with 5-10 satellites.
– A user could have position fixes using 4 or more navigation satellites, anywhere and anytime.
BroadSky Workshop, Sept. 2019
SLIDE 4Example: GPS• GPS (Global Positioning System) by US military
– The first satellite in 1973, IOC (Initial Operational Capability) declaration in 1993, FOC (Full Operational Capability) declaration in 1995.
– Primarily for military, but dual use system from the origin.– Configuration: Nominal 24 satellites; Actually 30 or more on the orbit.– Real time positioning using L-band navigation signals.
Real time: Can be used for airplane, missiles, and space vehicles.

SLIDE 7GPS Constellation• GPS Satellites:
– Orbiting altitude of 20,200km– 2 rounds per day; Not geostationary orbit– Operating about 30 satellites
• Minimum is 21 and 24 nominal constellation
– Typically 6 to 10 satellites are visiblesimultaneously from the ground
– Transmitted signals: (Legacy signals)• L1 C/A signal (1575.42MHz) for civil• L1 P/Y and L2 (1227.6MHz) P/Y signals for military• All satellites are transmitting at the same frequency
(CDMA: code division multiple access)
• Usage of GPS Signals:– Receivers measure the range (distance) from GPS satellites– Computes the current location based on measured ranges from multiple satellites– Satellite positions are computed based on orbit information broadcast by satellites
themselves

SLIDE 9Computing Position• Each GPS satellite has precise atomic clocks.
– Transmits ranging signals with very precisetiming known a priori;
– Ranging signals propagate at the speed of light;We can measure the distance from thetraveling time.
• GPS satellite position is also known.– Receivers can compute satellite positions at the
intended instance based on orbit informationbroadcast by GPS satellites themselves;
– Receivers also can compute its position with position of and distance from all satellites used;
– In order to compute 3-dimentional position, receivers need measurements of 4 or more satellites (4 unknowns: 3-D coordinates and receiver clock offset).
• Contents of GPS signal: Published as IS-GPS-200 document.

SLIDE 13Augmentation System• Augmentation System
– Augments GNSS core system(s) in terms of reliability and/or accuracy.– Used in case that the performance of core system(s) does not meet the
requirements. Accuracy: 95% position accuracy for horizontal and vertical Integrity: 99.99999% containment level (protection level)Continuity: The probability of continuous operation
– Augmentation information needs to be transmitted to users in addition to navigation signals of GNSS core system(s).Works as GNSS Integrity Channel: Guarantee of the correctness.
• GNSS Integrity Channel– A communication channel transmitting integrity information from the
navigation service provider to users.– Real time transmission: TTA (Time to Alert) requirements (∼ 6 sec for
aviation).
GPS cannot support by itself
BroadSky Workshop, Sept. 2019
SLIDE 14Why Integrity ?
• PRN23 GPS satellite transmitted anomalous signal due to failure beginning at the morning of 2 Jan., 2004 JST. Caused user position error of over 100 km.
• Flagged to turn off the satellite 3.5 hours after the event. The event was not observable from GPS control stations at the beginning.
