Abstract:

This report is the culmination of the first task in a project to evaluate human factors and operations issues associated with the integration of Class C Global Positioning System (GPS) sensors and Class Beta GPS/Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) sensors into navigation systems in low-end transport category aircraft. The objective of the project is to provide aircraft certification specialists with information and, eventually, with a job aid to help them evaluate GPS and GPS/WAAS sensors within integrated navigation systems. The first task of the project was to compare the requirements of the various FAA and industry documents currently used in the approval of GPS and GPS/WAAS sensor equipment and installation. The impact of the use of Required Navigation Performance (RNP) standards on approval also was evaluated. The comparison of the requirements specified in the document is presented in table form and major differences are discussed.
