Global Positioning System Shipborne Reference System
Abstract
The long term goal is to improve the navigation capability of naval vessels using the Global Positioning System (GPS) to the extent that they can be used as a base for differential GPS. This will increase the operational flexibility of the navy in carrying out many of its missions. To achieve this goal, it is desired that a ship be able to obtain and maintain an absolute, stand alone, position of 2 m accuracy or better without inputs from outside elements except the GPS satellites.
