  1. CAR/SAM ATN/GNSS Seminar ICAO Regional Project for Latin America RLA/00/009 CAR/SAM Test Bed (CSTB) Overview Presentation GNSS 7.2 Carey Fagan Federal Aviation Administration May 2002Veradero, Cuba

  2. ICAO Regional Project RLA/00/009Overview • Established in GREPECAS Conclusion 8/35 Calling for a “Regional GNSS Augmentation Trial (CSTB)” • UNDP/ICAO Technical Cooperation Project Being Implemented Through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Between the FAA and ICAO • GNSS Augmentation Test Bed (CSTB) Capability is Based on U.S. WAAS/LAAS Prototype Technologies • CSTB Architecture Consists of Individual Test Bed Equipment Sets in Brazil, Chile and Panama, and Additional FAA-Provided Equipment Sets in Argentina, Bolivia, Colombia, Honduras (COCESNA), and Peru.

  3. ICAO Regional Project RLA/00/009Overview (cont.) • GNSS Task Force Met in August 2001 to Finalize and Approve CSTB Architecture and Activity Timeline • Flight Tests, Data Collection and Analysis to be Conducted by GREPECAS States with FAA Support • GREPECAS States to Participate in Technical Training Provided by the FAA to Develop Regional Expertise

  4. ICAO Regional Project RLA/00/009Overview (cont.) • GREPECAS States to Assess Regional Requirements and Determine Regional Solutions • Develop Technical Expertise in Satellite Navigation and Augmentation Technologies and Systems • Ionosphere Research and Modeling • After Determining Regional Solutions, GREPECAS States, with Continued FAA Support, to Begin Transition Activities Towards an Operational GNSS System Architecture

  5. ICAO Regional Project RLA/00/009Objectives • Answer Questions Regarding GNSS Implementation and Operational Use in Latin America and its Member States • Support Both Individual and Regional Transitions to Operational GNSS Use in Latin America • Create a Seamless GNSS Navigation Capability Throughout Latin America and on Transition Routes to North America and Other International Destinations

  6. ICAO Regional Project RLA/00/009Objectives (cont.) • Measure the System Accuracy and Message Performance • Collect and Analyze Operational Performance of the CSTB with a Focus on Feasibility of Using an SBAS in the Region • Conduct Research and Analyses on Data Sharing and Interoperability Between Independent GNSS Augmentation Systems • Investigate the Shared Use of SBAS Geostationary Communication Satellites (GEOs)
