NAVSTAR GPS EQUIP
Abstract
The Navstar Global Positioning System (Navstar GPS) is a passive, space-based, radio positioning and navigation system providing precise, three dimensional position, navigation, velocity and timing information to warfighters. The Navstar GPS program is designated as a DoD Space Program and the United States Air Force (USAF) is the executive agent. The Joint Program Office develops GPS User Equipment (PE 35164F) with direct Army management and participation. NAVSTAR GPS is composed of three segments: Space, Control, and User Equipment. Project 168 provides for initial and sustained participation in the research and development of Army unique requirements that enhance the Position Navigation capabilities of Army weapons systems and platforms. These funds are used to identify/support the means to increase the functionality and performance of GPS receivers in response to the latest enemy threats to GPS. GPS Receivers have been designated a Horizontal Technology Integration (HTI) program and provide essential capabilities to numerous weapon systems and platforms.
