    Aircraft Navigation and Flight Computers: Galileo

    Uploaded by

    Alvin T'ng
    EGNOS is Europe's Satellite-Based Augmentation System that improves the accuracy of GPS signals for civilian use in Europe. It works by transmitting differential corrections to GPS signals from geostationary satellites. EGNOS improves the accuracy of GPS from around 5 meters to between 1-5 meters. EGNOS coverage includes all of Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. Galileo is the European Union's global satellite navigation system that is interoperable with and complementary to GPS. It will have 30 satellites in three orbital planes providing four navigation services including open access and commercial services. Galileo signals will have better performance than other satellite systems with three frequency bands and compatibility with other satellite systems.
