NAVSTAR GPS (Space)

Abstract

This Program Element (PE) funds Research and Development (R&D) for the Navstar Global Positioning System (GPS) Space and Control segments for GPS Block II satellites. It includes, but is not limited to: training simulators, Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) products, ground control segment development, sustaining engineering, space and ground segments upgrades, and R&D efforts to support GPS Block II system deployment including efforts to provide anti-jam capability through increased Military(M)-Code signal power. The Operational Control Segment (OCS) delivers control segment capabilities to support Block IIF satellites as well as the existing constellation of Block IIA/IIR/IIR-M satellites. Funding will provide continued development upgrades for ground segment to include, but not limited to upgrades for the existing GPS Selective Availability Anti-Spoof Module (SAASM) capability and SAASM changes. AEP software changes needed to fly IIF 6-12 and Launch, Anomaly and Disposal operations (LADO) changes. This program is in Budget Activity 7 - Operational Systems Development because it supports operational systems. Totals include funding for PRCP Program Number 166, Navstar GPS.
