Navigation Message Correction Tables: On-Orbit Results

Brian Brottlund, Cliff Harris and Christopher Shank

Abstract: Stand-alone GPS accuracy is a primary concern for several military applications. An approach for improving accuracy through backwards-compatible supplementation of the broadcast navigation message has been outlined in previous ION papers[ 11. This paper describes the technical design of this navigation message change, the “cheaper, faster, better” design approach adopted to bring this accuracy improvement to over-the-air test status, and the preliminary performance results gained in post- process and on-orbit tests.
