Extending the Reach of SBAS Some Aspects of EGNOS Performance in Ukraine

Abstract

A research of European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS) performance was conducted with a help of a satellite navigation receiver, working in the mode of receiving differential corrections. The goal of the research was to define the operation characteristics of EGNOS in central Ukraine, without a ground station. We have estimated the key system parameters, such as: accuracy, availability, continuity and integrity. Using the data recorded by our receiver and PEGASUS software to process it, this article illustrates the current state of EGNOS in Kiev.
