Issues for GNSS-Based Precision Approach

Stephen Heppe

Abstract:	This paper assesses twenty well-known issues associated with the application of GNSS technology to precision approach and landing. These issues vary in terms of their impact on the far-term National Airspace System (NAS), the worldwide Future Air Navigation System (FANS), and the projected cost of these multi-faceted systems. These issues are currently being examined and resolved as part of the world-wide effort to define the role of the GNSS in the NAS and the FANS. This paper attempts to put these issues into perspective, to provide a basis for systems engineering, R&D funding decisions, and policy-making.
