A Global Positioning System (GPS) Receiver combined with the
unparalleled accuracy and integrity monitoring of Wide Area
Augmentation System (WAAS), this Chelton component meets
requirements for primary navigation receiver for enroute and approach
guidance. The receiver utilizes the signals coming from GPS Satellite
Constellation and Satellite-Based Augmentation System (SBAS), such
as WAAS or EGNOS.
The primary function of Chelton's GPS-WAAS Receiver is to compute
the Position, Velocity of an aircraft and the Precise Time (PVT). It also
computes the integrity of the PVT from the SBAS signal, if available.
The GPS detects and excludes failed satellites (FD/FDE) using Receiver
Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (RAIM) algorithm, whenever there are
enough satellites, regardless of SBAS availability.
