Doc 8071 Study Group

1995 -- All Weather Operations Panel formed TRNSG (Testing of Radio Navigation Aids Study Group) to revise Doc 8071
Initially 11 countries, 15 participants
2004 -- Navigation Systems Panel formed CN&TSG (Conventional NavAids & Testing Subgroup) to continue Doc 8071 work
Membership expanded

SBAS Flight Testing Requirements

Prior to commissioning, each runway served and each approach If interference reported/suspected and ground testing cannot confirm elimination of the source RFI If procedure modified or new procedure introduced If changes to GBAS config occur such as the location of the GBAS ground subsystem antenna phase-center, the location of the data link transmit antenna, or the system database If site changes occur with potential to impact GNSS signal reception and data broadcast transmission Following certain maintenance activities If periodic flight tests are desired, parameters and intervals will be determined by individual states Back
