Abstract:A ground-based augmentation system (GBAS) is a critical component in civil aviation that augments the Global Positioning System (GPS) in providing precision approach and landing capabilities with guaranteed accuracy and integrity.The GBAS ground facility broadcasts a parameter known as σ vig to the aircraft, which is used to compute vertical protection levels for evaluating navigation integrity. σ vig represents the standard deviation of the vertical ionospheric gradients, which bounds the spatial gradients un… Show more
