Abstract:	In this paper preliminary flight tests results are presented for a feasibility study of using differential GPS precision approach and landings augmented with pseudolites. Flight tests have been carried out by the DSO National Laboratories, Singapore, and the Satellite Navigation and Positioning (SNAP) group of the University of New South Wales. Trials were carried out in April/May 2003, at the Wedderburn Airfield, Australia, to assess the capabilities and limitations of an integrated differential GPS/pseudolite navigation system. The results of the tests indicate that carrier-smoothed code-phase differential GPS/pseudolite can satisfy vertical and lateral accuracies consistent with RNP for CAT III landing.
