David P. Stapleton

Abstract: The total system error (TSE) and navigation system error (NSE) of the Global Positioning System/Wide Area Augmentation System (GPS/WAAS) are analyzed for the case of aircraft executing the final approach phase of flight. Error statistics and characteristics are presented for approach category C test flight data.
