6 Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) Architecture
38 Reference Stations 3 Master Stations 6 Ground Earth Stations The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) is one of 4 Space Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) in operation or in development around the globe. The Japanese MSAS, and Indian GAGAN systems are derivatives of the U.S. WAAS, and the EU has the EGNOS system. WAAS is in it’s final configuration with 38 Wide Area Reference Stations (WRS) feeding data to 3 Wide Area Master Stations (WMS), that compute GPS corrections and integrity information which is forwarded to four geographically dispersed Ground Earth Stations (GES), and uplinked the messages to two geostationary earth orbiting (GEO) satellites and broadcast to the users. The system is controlled from two Operational Control Centers (OCC), one located at the National Operational Command Center (NOCC) in Herndon, VA and the second located at the Pacific Operational Control Center (POCC) in San Diego, CA. 3 Geostationary Satellite Links 2 Operational Control Centers 6

20 Computer Modeling Computer models estimate service availability based on algorithms compatible with WAAS (and MSAS) Dual frequency GPS results involve additional assumptions Potential effects of scintillation are not included All results shown assume 2 MSAS GEOs at 140/145º E Some results are shown assuming that 24 GPS satellites are operating and in primary slots Some results are shown assuming GPS failure rates consistent with the 2008 SPS Performance Standard for GPS (21 operating slots filled 98% of the time) 20

32 GBAS Architecture One GBAS covers multiple runway ends
GBAS eliminates ILS critical areas Supports offset landing thresholds and flexible glide-path to mitigate wake turbulence Contributing technology for high precision navigation services for Closely Spaced Parallel Approach Simultaneous Independent Approach Enabling precise positioning for terminal area navigation RNAV and RNP

33 FY 11 GBAS Activities NextGen Implementation Plan 2011 identifies GBAS as key ground infrastructure and avionics for the descent and approach phase NextGen delayed the investment decision for FY13 and GBAS R&D was shifted to William J Hughes Technical Center Navigation Team GBAS FY 11/12 activities focus on RFI mitigation CAT II/III validation Newark and Houston implementation International coordination

34 Why APNT? GPS radio frequency interference (RFI) requires mitigation
Waiting for the interference source to be turned off is unacceptable Continuity of operations must be assured at high density airports Existing legacy navigation infrastructure does not meet future performance needs VORs are incompatible with RNAV and RNP DME/DME/IRU is not accurate enough to enable 3 nm separation FAA would like to avoid $1B cost to replace aging VORs 34

35 NextGen Alternate PNT (APNT) Project
Enhanced DME Timing Wide Area Multi-Lateration (WAM) DME/GBT Pseudolite

36 DME-DME Alternative Strengths Weaknesses
Leverage existing technology and systems Least Impact on Avionics for Air Carriers Weaknesses Significant Impact on Avionics for General Aviation General Aviation avionics are unavailable DME-DME equipped aircraft without Inertial are not authorized to fly RNAV/RNP routes DME-DME, even with Inertial, is not authorized for pubic approach operations less than RNAV/RNP-1.0 DME-DME interrogations saturate in very high traffic environments Will require retention and capitalization of nearly half the VORs

37 MLAT Alternative Strengths Weaknesses
Minimal Impact on Existing Avionics Accuracy Demonstrated to be within target levels Compatible with existing WAM Systems Weaknesses Throughput on 1090ES may limit ability of MLAT to meet availability requirements Integrity monitoring and Time to Alert necessary to meet navigation requirements may be very challenging More sites to meet requirements due to limited signal range Capacity limited in high density traffic environments Requires a GPS-Independent common time reference Significant investment in processing facilities and terrestrial communications network may be required

38 Pseudolite Alternative
Strengths Unlimited capacity Less complexity for ground-based system Potential for aircraft based integrity solution Potential to leverage use of existing DMEs and GBTs Potential to uplink data other navigation data to aircraft Weaknesses Minimum of 3 sites required to compute aircraft position Significant investment in processing facilities and terrestrial communications network may be required Common GPS-independent timing reference needed Greatest Impact to Aircraft Avionics Least mature concept, no standards exist 38

40 Summary NextGen Operational Improvements enabled by performance based navigation capabilities increases dependence on GPS and alternate PNT services GPS vulnerability to radio frequency interference needs to be addressed for enroute and trajectory based operations at some locations Alternatives are being studied for further consideration 40

42 Current WAAS RNP .3 Performance
WAAS Lifecycle is broken into four phases Phase I-Initial Operating Capability provided LNAV/VNAV Phase II- consisted of architecture and performance upgrades: additional WRSs in Canada, Mexico and Alaska were procured, upgraded communication, O&M enhancements, GEO replacement, WMS, and software upgrades Phase III- Replacement of Legacy WRSs, router upgrades, software enhancements, L5 transition activities: Specifications, ICDs, MOPs development, WRS receiver development, Develop L5 Transition Plan Phase IV- Dual Frequency Operations- Dual Frequency Operations will allow WAAS to broadcast on two civil frequencies L1, L5. Activities that will occur new safety computer, new processor L1- L2- L5- 42 42

44 Navigation Infrastructure
GPS/GNSS supports all existing ICAO Nav Specs Enroute through approach U.S. SBAS (Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS)) operational since 2003 U.S. GBAS (Local Area Augmentation System (LAAS)) in development Where allowed, DME/DME (D/D) or DME/DME/IRU (D/D/I) can support RNAV 1, RNAV 2, RNAV 5 GNSS and D/D/I are approved means of navigation in U.S. All U.S. RNAV and RNP implementation can be flown with GPS or WAAS Almost all U.S. RNAV routes, STARs and SIDs have D/D/I authorized RNAV 5 not implemented in U.S. VOR can be used with DME for RNAV 5 Usually considered for contingencies Avionics and infrastructure variability pose challenges to standardization ILS still used for approach

45 RFI Impact on Engineering Activities
RFI technical work priority over CAT III work Major FAATC activities as result of RFI RFI investigations and RFI report SLS-4000 Block I changes (Honeywell initiative) with focus on RFI Newark (PANYNNJ), FCC, Spectrum coordination FAA Monitoring SLS 4000 performance Availability Analysis Outage prediction Upgrades of Monitors RFI considerations for CAT II/III Prototyping and Validation

46 Requirements Development and Validation
CAT II/III Engineering Activities ICAO standards Technical validation of proposed CAT III standards (completed May 2010) Next phase "Operational Validation" (Ground/avionics prototypes support this) Prototyping and Validation Develop CAT-III prototype LGF and avionics Validate implementation of the integrity design and allocations CAT I Engineering activities support CAT II/III development and validation efforts Honeywell SLS-4000 Block I changes (Improve Availability, Maintainability) CAT I Optimization of Monitors and Algorithms Monitor SLS-4000 performance FAATC Monitors in Newark, Atlantic City, Memphis Planned: Houston / TBD: Boeing - Moses Lake Slide 5 > ICAO Standards - Technical validation was completed as of May We are now pursuing the next phase of validation referred to as "Operational Validation" within the NSP. The ground and avionics prototypes will support part of this phase. Additional work will likely extend into the development contract to complete this phase (this does not need to go into the briefing, but I am providing it for background). > Add preliminary requirements to the list of activities. A finished spec is far off and we have commitments to NextGen for preliminary requirements which will demonstrate significant progress if everyone can agree to them. > Boeing MOA - I am not sure this is on the right slide. This is not a specific requirements activity. The MOA will allow us to cooperate more closely with Boeing and potentially define/implement more specific requirements validation tasks. It is difficult to know what is going to come out of this or even whether we have the resources to support it until more specific plans are defined. This would be a good area to under promise on. If Boeing was willing to use this as a vehicle to link our development programs or do planning for that, then we would have something specifically worth noting. The scope is somewhat ambiguous right now.
