Abstract1983 Global Positioning Systems (GPS) were made
available to the publicPeople rely heavily on GPS todayGoal: Implement a temporary system in the event the
satellites become inoperableProposed Solution: VHF Omnidirectional Radial (VOR)

Long Term Sponsor Goal
Use high altitude balloons to function as temporary satellites

IntroductionProblems to be Solved
Provide an alternative solution to GPS failure
Past Projects/Customer NeedsNo groups at Wright State University have attempted this projectAny person/business who wants a backup to GPS
Our Customers/Market VolumeAnybody in the government/private sector relies on GPSMarket volume would be high due to the fact GPS is so widely used
DemandThere is no backup system currently implemented so the
government/private sector would be interested in this product

ConstraintsLaws
FCC and HAM radio license rules. Additionally, Federal Aviation Administration rules must be adhered to.
Manufacturing/SustainabilityLightweightSustain weather conditions (i.e. temperature, high wind,
precipitation)Withstand Landing
CostThis project has to meet certain budget criteria, but our funds are
sufficient due to our sponsors

Project Goals/DeliverablesImplement a VOR positioning system as a supplement to
GPS.Plan A – Track balloon location using VOR radials from three
different stationsPlan B – Similar to Plan A, signal strength will be used to
triangulate a position

Project Goals/Deliverables Short Term Goals:
Small ScaleImplement phase shift/signal strength positioning in the laboratory
Moderate ScaleImplement phase shift/signal strength positioning around/near campus
Large ScaleImplement phase shift/signal strength at altitude with balloon

Potential DifficultiesThe transmitting signal does not produce a strong enough
signal to analyzeEquipment for VOR is highly specialized to aircraft
instrumentsThe lack of fox hunting skills

Project Plan and ScheduleScheduled meeting times: Wednesday and Saturday
Launch Dates and other meetings subject to existing HAB team launches
![Page 13: High altitude balloon vor -u](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062323/568161dc550346895dd1eb72/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Proposed Budget• This project has negligible budget concerns due to
sponsor interest• At this point in the schedule we have not determined all
necessary parts we need.
