OCX

Abstract

This Budget Program Activity Code (BPAC) funds Research and Development (R&D) for the next generation GPS control segment (OCX). This includes, but is not limited to, advance concept development, systems engineering and analysis, modernized control segment development, GPS enterprise integration, training simulators, Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) products, and developmental test resources. The OCX acquisition was established to 1) fly the GPS III satellites, 2) incorporate situational awareness to support Navwar and signal monitoring, and 3) enable mission capability upgrades to support warfighter Effects-Based Approach to Operations (EBAO). Funds will support engineering studies and analyses, architecture engineering studies, trade studies, technology needs forecasting, systems engineering, systems development, test and evaluation efforts and transition to mission operations in support of upgrades and product improvements for military and civil applications necessary to support efforts to protect U.S. military and allies' use of GPS. Funds will support science and technology, technology development, systems development and GPS enterprise integration efforts. In FY2009 and FY2010, this effort is funded in PE 0603423F, Global Positioning System III - Operational Control Segment.
