Future Worldwide Position, Velocity, and Timing (PVT) Requirements and Acquisition Strategies

Hank Skalski, Mark Mayne, Bill Fauver

Abstract:	The Department of Transportation in cooperation with the Departments of Commerce, Defense, and State has taken the lead in promoting commercial applications of GPS technologies and the acceptance of GPS and U.S. Government augmentations as standards in domestic and international transportation systems. A major goal of the US Department of Defense and the US Department of Transportation is to select a mix of common-use (civil and military) which meet diverse user requirements for accuracy, reliability, availability, integrity, coverage, operational utility, and cost; provides adequate capability for future growth; and eliminates unnecessary duplication of service. Selecting a future radionavigation system is a complex task since user requirements vary widely and change with time.
