  1. Global Positioning Systems Wing GPS Program Update to ION GNSS 2009 22 September 2009 Col Dave Madden Commander GPS Wing 2008 09 22 GPS Overview to ION v6

  2. Global Positioning Systems Wing Mission: Acquire and sustain survivable, effective, and affordable globalpositioning & timing servicesfor our military and civil users Col Dave Madden Deliver and Sustain Global Navigation and Timing Service

  3. Preeminence in PNT is a National Objective For the warfighter: • Global PNT has revolutionized military operations • Reduced collateral damage (people, infrastructure) • Limits friendly fire vulnerability • Higher accuracy munitions • Fewer sorties to accomplish mission needs (reduces exposure) • Aircraft standoff capability minimizes exposure to highlydefended environments • Enhanced warfighter situational awareness & Blue Force tracking For the Nation and the World: • Global PNT has also significantly enhanced civilian life • Air traffic control • Commercial navigation • Enable cellular communication • Demand will continue to grow well beyond next decade Saves Warfighter Lives • Timing of critical financial transactions • Wildland fire management • Precision agriculture GPS is essential for the conduct of any war –and an integral part of day-to-day life

  4. GPS Constellation • Very robust constellation • 30 space vehicles currently set healthy • 11 GPS IIA • 12 GPS IIR • 7 GPS IIR-M • 1 GPS IIR-M waiting to be set healthy • 3 additional satellites in residual status • Global GPS civil service performancecommitment met continuouslysince December 1993

  5. Recent Successes Space Segment • SVN 49 launched in March 09 • L5 demo payload secured frequency filing • Signal distortion investigation still underway • IONpanel session Wednesday on SVN-49 • SVN 50 launched in August 09 • Set healthy • Completed GPS Delta II launches • GPS IIF completed Pathfinder testing • GPS IIIA completed Preliminary Design Reviews • Developed L2C message Type 0 capability for GPS IIRM to support testing of civil UE testing • Loaded to SV and currently in check out

  6. Recent Successes (Cont’d) • Ground Segment • Delivered new version of OCS (AEP 5.5) to final regression testing with SAASM capability • Completed successful OCX, SDR,Modernized Capability Demo and RFP release User Segment • Demonstrated successful tracking of pseudo M-Code from live satellites byMGUE Phase A ASIC • Collaborating with user community to finalize MGUE acquisition strategy

  7. Modernization Satellites • (Block IIR-M) • 2nd civil signal (L2C) • M-Code signals (L1M, L2M) • Flex A/J power (+7dB) • (Block IIF) • 3rd civil signal (L5) GPS III(Block III) • Increased accuracy • Increased A/J power(up to 20 dB) • Signal integrity • Search and Rescue • Common GalileoOS & GPS (L1C) • Legacy (Block IIA/IIR) • Basic GPS • C/A civil signal (L1C/A) • Std Pos. Service • Precise Pos. Service • L1 & L2 P(Y) nav • NDS Control Systems Legacy • TT&C • L1 & L2 monitoring OCX Blk 2 • LADO ops for all SVs • All new signals (including L1C) OCX Blk 1 (Modernized) • Flexible Architecture • Mission Ops for all SVs • Control 1 new signal • (L2C, L5, or M-Code) • Control Flex Power • Signal Integrity Monitoring Upgraded (AEP) • GPS IIF TT&C • SAASM OCX Blk 3&4 (GPS III B/C) • Manage Spot Beam • NAVWAR, GNOC • Mission Planning • Effects-Based Ops User Equipment Legacy • Man Pack • MAGR, PLGR • RCVR-3A, 3S • OH, UH • FRPA, CRPA Upgraded • DAGR • CSEL MGUE(Modernized) • Anti-Jam, Anti-Spoof • Military exclusivity • Handheld / Anti-Tamper • Gnd & Avionics embed • Auto OTA Rekeying • GAS-1 • MAGR2K • GB-GRAM Cornerstones to the Future GPS are GPS III, OCX, & MGUE

  8. GPS Modernization – New Civil Signals • Second civil signal “L2C” • Designed to meet commercial needs • Higher accuracy through ionospheric correction • Available since 2005 without data message • Phased roll-out CNAV message starting Sep 2009 • Full capability: 24 satellites and full CNAV ~2016 Benefits existing professional receivers • Third civil signal “L5” • Designed to meet demanding requirementsfor transportation safety-of-life • Uses highly protected Aeronautical Radio Navigation Service (ARNS) band • 1st launch: 2009; 24 satellites and full CNAV ~2018

  9. Fourth Civil Signal (L1C) • Designed with international partnersfor interoperability • Modernized civil signal at L1 frequency • More robust navigation across a broad rangeof user applications • Improved performance in challengedtracking environments • Original signal retained for backward compatibility • Specification developed in cooperationwith industry recently completed • Launches with GPS III in 2014 • On 24 satellites by ~2021 Under Trees Urban Canyons

  10. IIF Satellites • Delivers all legacy signals, plus new capabilities (L5) and capability improvements (new clocks for better accuracy) • Primary focus remains on Mission Success activities • Integrated readiness reviews with Boeing, GPSW, and SMC technical staffs • Executive reviews with Boeing VPs, GPSW/CC, SMC/CC and former GPS Directors • Several components redesigned or reworked to ensure success • IIF-1 L2, L3, L5 units replaced and retested successfully • Extensive testing conducted to ensure IIF mission success • Tailored MIL-STD tests in factory • Pathfinder launch site testing • Consolidated System Testing • AEP 5.5 Transition Exercises • LADO IIF rehearsals • Completing development of On-orbit test plans

  11. GPS IIF Performance GPS IIF is meeting or exceeding all specified requirements

  12. IIF Pathfinder (May – Sep 2009) • IIF-2 shipped to Cape for risk mitigation • All transport procedures proven successful • All mechanical activities performed to planand facility interfaces verified • Consolidated System Testing checked all interfaces to OCS AEP and LADO • Cut IIF-1 critical path to launch by 2 months and reduced schedule risk • Best Practice for future GPS programs

  13. GPS IIF Summary • GPS IIF available for launch in Nov 2009 • Will provide new/improved capabilities for civil and military users • Basis for reliable sustainment ofGPS constellation in years ahead • Partnership between GPSW & Boeing continues to focus on mission success

  14. Military GPS User Equipment (MGUE) provides M-Code to the Warfighter

  15. Military User Equipment Paradigm Shift:The Common GPS Module (CGM) Proposed MGUE Paradigm (Emulate commercial, Build the engine!) Commercial Paradigm (GPS “engines” enable multiple applications) … … + = Enablers Build “Engines” Global GPS Use Integrators Build Applications Common GPS Module (CGM) + = GPSW Builds Enabling “Engines” Integrators Build Applications Global Military GPS Use

  16. Enabling Modernization with the CGM Initial contracts deliver CGM & CGM-based Ground-Embedded card CGM Hundreds of mission-unique applications CGM Full function Lead Platform Form Factors Complete Card for Ground Platform Over 70,000 Ground Embedded Platforms CGM Form Factor for, Air, & Maritime Lead Platforms

  17. Space Segment Control Segment User Segment Keys to the Global Success of GPS • Program Stability and Performance • Civil service performance commitment met continuously since 1993 • Continuous improvements in accuracy, availability, etc. • Continuity of constellation and signals ensured throughAir Force operation and acquisition • Funding through U.S. taxpayers • Policy Stability and Transparency • Open access to civil GPS signals, free of direct user fees • Open, free, and stable technical documentation • Market-based competition worldwide • National-level policy coordination including civil and military leaders • Commercial Entrepreneurship and Investment

  18. Summary • GPS has continuously met is commitments toall users since FOC • GPS has had multiple operational and acquisition successes in the past year • Modernization of all GPS Segments is on track Maintaining And Improving GPS Services For All Users Is Job #1
