Commercial Aviation GPS Navigation Set Architecture

Mark A. Sturza

Abstract: This paper describes a GPS Navigation Set specifically designed for commercial aviation applications. The design philosophy for this set has been to minimize RF signal processing in favor of digital signal processing and to minimize hardware digital signal processing in favor of software digital signal processing. This philosophy has resulted in a unique architecture. This architecture is described and its impact on performance and cost are discussed. Features of the set unique to the commercial aviation application are presented.
