GNSS-1 Operational Validation • EUROCONTROL will coordinate the GNSS-1 (EGNOS) Operational Validation: • To support the Member States in achieving the approval for the provision of EGNOS services throughout ECAC (European Civil Aviation Conference) • Two distinct areas of work: • Technical Validation of the performance • SARPS requirements – RNP values • MOPS DO229C compliant receiver • Definition of operational rules and procedures for aircraft to use the system for a particular application (APV implementation)
Technical Validation of the EGNOS Performances • Preparatory activities: • Static Data Collection • ESTB Data Collection Network (ESTB) • Data Evaluation Tools – PEGASUS • Integrity Validation Studies • Flight Trials at various locations • Bretigny, Nice, Sion
