Egnos for business aviation
0 likes662 views
This document discusses the applications and benefits of EGNOS (European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service) for business aviation. It notes that EGNOS improves GPS signal integrity and accuracy, allowing for more precise approaches down to decision heights of 200 feet using Localizer Performance with Vertical guidance (LPV). This expands operational flexibility and accessibility, particularly at airports with fewer than 100 daily departures that previously had only non-precision approaches. EGNOS also enables category 2 and 3 low visibility operations using synthetic and enhanced vision systems. The document outlines additional potential applications like dual slope LPV approaches and shifted thresholds to increase runway capacity and mitigate wake vortex risks.

The remaining 4% represent however more than 1/3 of business aviation traffic in volume. • 70% – proportion of business aviation flights taking off and landing at airports handling fewer than 100 departures per day • Up to 25% of operator revenues are derived from multiple destination journeys

IMPROVING SIGNAL INTEGRITY • The EGNOS ground stations monitor in real time the satellite signals and correct • Integrity Level 10-7 compared to 10-5 "RAIM"? 2. IMPROVING THE ACCURACY • Allows you to use the GPS altitude as a vertical guide • More likely to display barometric pressure reference error? 3. BEST AVAILABILITY • 4 satellites are needed against 5 satellites in the conventional solution "RAIM"
