  1. Surveillance and Broadcast Services GPS Constellations and Support for Separation Standards: National Space Based Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) Advisory Board

  2. Agenda • Objective • GPS Constellation Performance • Current Separation Standards • Required Integrity to Support Separation Standards • Current Specified 24 Satellite Constellation • Future 24 Satellite Constellation • 27/30 Satellite Constellations • Conclusions • Next Steps

  3. Separation Standards Analysis Objective • Determine the GPS constellation configuration that support various separation standards for the En Route and Terminal domains

  4. GPS Constellation Performance • The GPS Standard Positioning Service (SPS) Performance Standard defines the minimum requirements for GPS performance • In support of the service availability standard, 24 operational satellites must be available on orbit with 0.95 probability (averaged over any day) • At least 21 satellites in the 24 nominal plane/slot positions must be set healthy and transmitting a navigation signal with 0.98 probability (yearly averaged) • Achieved 95% Global Accuracy of 13m with a worst case 95% Site Accuracy of 36m • GPS performance has historically exceeded the minimum SPS requirement • Current Constellation has 31 satellites that are operational (28 usable as of August 29, 2007) • Achieved 95% Global Accuracy of 4m with a worst case 95% Site Accuracy of 6m

  5. GPS Constellation Performance • Availability of a defined level of integrity is basis for detemining GPS Constellation ability to support separation standards • Integrity in ADS-B is termed Navigational Integrity Category (NIC) • GPS terminology refers to integrity Horizontal Protection Limit (HPL) • Analysis for GPS support of providing a separation standard will be based on the availability of the minimum integrity value necessary for a separation minima • Analysis conducted by MITRE

  6. Current Separation Standards • Analyzed all Terminal separation cases • 5nm En Route • 3nm Terminal • 2.5nm Terminal on approach • 1.5nm Terminal on staggered dependent approaches • 4,300 feet on independent parallel approaches

  7. Required Integrity to Support Separation Standards • MITRE Close Approach Probability Model is basis of determining integrity values that support a defined separation standard • Calculates probability of close approach (aircraft actually separated by 200ft or less) when aircraft are displayed with a defined separation • Compares the relative performance, using CAP as a metric, of ADS-B with today’s radar separation • Determines the minimum Navigational Accuracy Category and NIC value required from ADS-B avionics to support a defined separation minima

  8. MITRE Model Terminal Results: Summary • MSSR Radar Cross Range Error Compared to NIC/NAC and NUC values of ADS-B that provide equivalent Close Approach Probability (CAP) of 10-12 to that of radar • 10-12 probability selection based on ICAO acceptance of this risk value for comparative assessment of extending Mode S radar range to 250NM

  9. MITRE CAP Model Analysis Results • Model estimates the probability of separation loss (separation of <= 200 feet) with an apparent display separation less than or equal to the separation minima • Determination of minimum NIC/NAC for Terminal and En Route Separation Standards • NIC of at least 7 and NAC of at least 8 are required for ADS-B to have equivalent or lower CAP risk than radar - Driving Requirement is Independent Parallel Approach Separation • Radar / ADS-B separation case also drives ADS-B NIC/NAC selection NIC/NACp Requirements for Close Approach Probability of 10-12 Equivalence

  10. NIC Relationship to Containment Radius (Rc) • Containment Radius is the radius within which a reported position is assured to lie • Synonymous with HPL terms for GPS • VPL is Vertical Protection Limit. Some NIC values also require a defined VPL.

  11. Current Specified 24 Satellite Constellation • Assumptions • 24 GPS Martinez constellation • Single-frequency receiver • Average availability of n-satellite failure (n=0-3) • Availability assessed over 24 hours with 5 minute intervals • No failures on operating satellites • GPS constellations considered parametrically (standard 24 SV and degraded: 23, 22, and 21 SV constellations) • No Baro Aiding or Inertial coasting capability in avionics • Mask Angle is the minimum angle above the horizon at which a GPS satellite would be used in the position calculation

  21. Summary • GPS Constellations with greater numbers of satellites • Increase the availability for applying separation minima • Provide support for all current and potential future separation minima even with SV failures • Future Satellite Constellations with dual frequencies provide increased availability of separation minima

  23. Conclusions • 24 Satellite Constellation with all satellites operational • Provides availability of >0.999 for 5NM En Route as well as 3NM, 2.5 NM and 1.5NM on Parallel Dependent Approach Terminal separation standards in most of CONUS and Alaska • Support for Independent parallel approach is unlikely with a 24 satellite constellation due to poor availability • Some areas in US have low availability (<0.999) of both terminal and En Route Separation Standards with a Mask Angle of either 2 or 5 degrees • Decreasing the Mask Angle accepted by the receiver increases availability but not sufficient to support separation standards in all of CONUS or Alaska • Any satellite failure results in poor availability (<0.99) for applying terminal or en route separations

  24. Conclusions • Future 24 Satellite Constellation • Provides availability of >0.99999 for 5NM En Route as well as all current Terminal separation standards with all satellites operational and a 2 degree mask angle • A single satellite failure results in maintaining an availability of 0.999 or greater in supporting all terminal and en route separtaion standards • When 2 or more satellites are failed GPS provides poor availability (<0.99) of integrity for applying en route and terminal separations

  25. Conclusions • 27 Satellite Constellation • Provides availability of >0.99999 to support all current separation standards • Provides availablity of a NIC that supports reduction of separation standards • Single satellite failure reduces availability of applying all separation standards in small area of CONUS to <0.999 when using a 5Mask Angle • Availability of all separation standards remains >0.99999 for a 2 Mask Angle during a single satellite failure. • Dual satellite failures degrades availability for applying today’s separation standards to as low as 0.99

  26. Conclusions • 30 Satellite Constellation • Provides availability of >0.99999 to support all current separation standards • Provides availablity of a NIC that supports reduction of separation standards • Single satellite failure does not impact availability of applying all current separation standards • Two satellite failures reduces availability of applying all separation standards • Over much of CONUS to >0.9999 when using a 5Mask Angle • In only small area of CONUS when using a 2 Mask Angle during a single satellite failure.
