Abstract:	QZSS is a regional Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) system in East Asia and Oceania region [1] which is designed to complement and augment the modernized GPS system. It consists of three satellites and will improve the visibility of the satellites from the ground users in mid-latitude area. The first satellite of QZSS is currently under development by government sector consisting of four ministries and the research institute, JAXA. NEC Corporation is responsible for the manufacturing of Navigation Payload (NP) and the High- Accuracy Positioning Experiment System (HIAPEX)[2]. In this paper, the results of the NP PFM Proto-Flight Test (PFT) and Navigation System Test (NST) including the equipments of the ground system of Master Control Station (MCS) and Monitoring Stations (MS) are discussed.
