Conclusions
WAAS is used to provide aircraft navigation from enroute through vertically guided approach
Integrity was and is the key challengeImportant to understand what can go wrong
and how to protect usersCareful analysis of feasible threats
New civil frequencies and additional constellations will further improve performance

GPS Performance (Usually)
On a good day, thered circle encloses 95%of the GPS position fixes.

Major GPS Faults About Twice a YearExample: Ephemeris Failure on April 10, 2007
On a bad day, theGPS errors can bemuch worse.
WAAS & GBASeliminate theselarge errors.

Integrity Approach
Aviation integrity operates on a guilty until proven innocent principleError bound is the maximum possible
value given the measurements
This is unlike conventional systems that describe the most likely errors
Protection level is a 99.99999% bound on worst reasonable conditionsVery different from 95% achieved
accuracy

Utility of Protected Accuracy from WAAS
WAAS (& GBAS) tunnels:• Do not flare like ILS• Do not have beam bends• Are programmable• Are adaptable
• Localizer performance with vertical guidance (LPV)
• Safer than lateral nav.(non-precision approach)
• Same decision ht. as Cat I• GBAS for Cat. II & III

L1-only Threats Reference station multipath, noise, cycle slips, and
other receiver errors – WRE bias, CNMP Satellite clock/ephemeris – UDRE/MT28 Erroneous ionospheric delay estimates - GIVE Erroneous WRE clock estimates, interfrequency
bias estimates – RDM L1 code/carrier incoherence – CCC L1 signal deformation – SQM Multiple convolved threats – UPM, convolution
analysis Antenna biases, GEO biases – specific analyses
![Page 28: The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) Todd Walter Stanford University Todd Walter Stanford University](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062323/5697bf881a28abf838c893ab/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
28
L1/L5 Threats Reference station multipath, noise, cycle slips, and
other receiver errors – WRE bias, CNMP – unchanged
Satellite clock/ephemeris – UDRE/MT28 – need to remove L1/L2 bias from Fast Correction, could remove uncertainty from UDRE
Erroneous ionospheric delay estimates - GIVE – uneeded
Erroneous WRE clock estimates, interfrequency bias estimates – RDM – IFBs uneeded, WRE clocks may be handled by UDRE/UPM
![Page 29: The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) Todd Walter Stanford University Todd Walter Stanford University](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062323/5697bf881a28abf838c893ab/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
L1/L5 Threats cont. L1/L5 code/carrier incoherence – CCC –
new/updated monitor, MERR reduced without GIVE while threat is potentially increased
L1/L5 signal deformation – SQM – new/updated monitor, MERR reduced while threat is increased. User space will need to be greatly restricted
Multiple convolved threats – UPM, convolution analysis – new/updated monitor specific to L1/L5 user
Antenna biases, GEO biases – specific analyses – new/updated analysis, effects are greater

30
CCC Threats
Iono-free ccc metric expected to have 2.6 times as much noise as L1-only versionTrip thresholds may need to be increasedCould lead to UDRE bumps or trips
MERR substantially reduced without GIVE Need much reduced thresholds and test
L1 only monitor has margin thanks to GIVENeed to collect data to see real test
Need L5 data, but L2C might be OK
High risk factor for not being able to match L1 UDREs
