Navigation and Landing Systems
Raytheon navigation and landing systems enhance the capabilities for all phases of flight in all types of environments.
WAAS/SBAS
The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) is the FAA's version of the ICAO standardized Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS). Raytheon is the FAA's prime contractor for WAAS. The FAA commissioned WAAS for operational use in the United States on July 10, 2003. It is a safety-critical system that enables the Global Positioning System (GPS) to meet air navigation performance and safety requirements for enroute, terminal, non-precision approach and approach with vertical guidance operations.
RSMS
The Raytheon Service Monitoring System (RSMS) provides Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs) and other users with the capability to independently monitor the real-time performance of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and its augmentation systems (e.g. SBAS). Whether you are a full GNSS augmentation system operator, supplementary reference station operator, or simply a signal-in-space user, the RSMS provides you with the confidence that the navigation signals in your region are safe to use. The RSMS product family includes four versions (Model 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000) that offer a full range of affordable capabilities ranging from a simple, portable real-time monitor, to a complete system operations, maintenance, monitoring, and real-time service prediction and GNSS NOTAM generation capability.
JPALS
The Department of Defense selected Raytheon to develop, prototype, and test the Joint Precision Approach and Landing System (JPALS). JPALS is an all-weather, all-mission, all-user landing system based on local area differential GPS.
GAGAN
Raytheon will build the ground stations for the GPS-Aided Geosynchronous Augmented Navigation System, or GAGAN, for the Indian Space Research Organization. The GAGAN system is expected to be fully operational by 2013 and will provide satellite-based navigation for civil aviation over Indian airspace and adjoining areas in South and East Asia.
