Title:
SUN-n-FUN 2019 Forum - Resilient Navigation
Topic:
Resilient Navigation
Speaker(s):
Vince Massimini, Rick Niles, MITRE Corp.
Brief Description:
Navigation technology must continue to evolve to meet growing demands, address delays, and prevent future gridlock.
To meet this challenge, the FAA is transitioning the NAS to Performance Based Navigation (PBN). PBN includes both Area Navigation (RNAV) and Required Navigation Performance (RNP). RNAV and RNP operations are enabled primarily by satellite navigation in the form of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). GNSS includes GPS, Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS), Aircraft Based Augmentation System (ABAS), and other satellite navigation systems developed to support aviation. Using GNSS, RNAV and RNP routes and procedures can be flown virtually anywhere in the NAS, in all phases of flight.
GNSS provides an excellent and valuable service, but is susceptible to interference (intentional and unintentional) so to mitigate GNSS vulnerabilities, the FAA is developing a robust and resilient navigation infrastructure. This layered backup navigation capability includes the use of Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) and Very High Frequency Omni-directional Range (VOR) to provide a basic conventional capability in the event of GNSS outages.
