Advanced Navigation Terminal System Using the Global Positioning System

Abstract

This report is the final report for the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), Space Vehicles Directorate (SV), Ballistic Missile Technology (BMT) Demonstration under contract F29601-00- C-02l2. This document describes a program where the functional requirements and technical assessment for the development of an Advanced Navigation Terminal System (ANTS) using the Global Positioning System (GPS) were performed. Under the Base Year of this contract, a Functional Level Specification and System (FLSS) Architecture Study were performed. Under Option Year 1, Technology Assessment items on: 1)GPS Transceiver (GPST) and a small All-zenith multipath limiting antenna (AZMLA) was performed. This report documents the outcomes from these activities.
