  1. Radio Navigation Aids Fixing systems using radio frequencies (NavStar GPS and LORAN C)

  2. NavStar GPS • System built by USA Defence Department. • Worldwide coverage. • UHF transmissions from satellites. • Very accurate (in the region of 50 metres)

  3. Navstar GPS CHG 98/14/20 M97/1114-20

  4. The Navstar System SPACE SEGMENT 28 Satellites 6 Orbits UPLINK DATA Satellite Ephemeris Clock Drift Propagation Delay DOWNLINK DATA Navigation Message Data CONTROL SEGMENT 5 Monitor Stations 3 Antennae 1 Master Control Station USER SEGMENT Ships Helicopters etc CHG 98/14/21 M97/1114-21

  5. Pseudo Range to One Satellite

  6. Correcting for Receiver Clock Error

  7. Geometry of the Satellites a. Good (Low) Dilution of Precision b. Poor (High) Dilution of Precision

  8. GPS Accuracy for the Fully Operational System Vertical within 10 metres Horizontal within 8 metres Velocity within 0.1 knots Horizontal within 8 metres Absolute global time transfer to a fraction of a microsecond available continuously

  9. 4 Satellites provide 3 Dimensional Fix Expected Accuracy (67%) Position 30ft Velocity 0.1kts Time 10 Nano Secs

  10. Differential GPS System Elements Satcom Link Differential Reference Station and Broadcast Transmitter Differential Correction Broadcast DGPS User Data Comms Link Control Centre

  11. LORAN C BASIC FREQUENCY = 100kHz RANGE = Groundwave 1200M Skywave Up to 3000M ACCURACY = Groundwave 200M < 300 FT 500M 200 - 700 FT 750M 300 - 1100 FT 1000M 500 - 1700 FT Skywave Up to 11M (95% Probability) COVERAGE = Limited see ALRS Vol 2 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION = Time Difference. The time difference between master and two slaves are measured.

  22. Layout of a Station The master station transmits first and then secondaries follow in sequence after “secondary coding delay”. Notes: Coding delay ensures: 1. Slaves cannot be received out of alphabetical sequence. 2. Correct identification of slave by time difference “slot”. CHG 98/13/24 M97/1097/24

  23. Loran C Signal Format All stations transmit 8 pulses 1000 secs apart. The master transmits a 9th pulse 2000 secs after the eighth pulse for identification. This ninth pulse can “blink” to warn of a defect in the chain. The blink can be coded to identify the defect. The first two pulses of a defective secondary can also be made to “blink”.
