Abstract

Ground Based Augmentation System(GBAS) is a system that offers an aircraft within 23 NM radius from the airport precision positioning service and precision approach service using the concept of Differential Global Positioning System(DGPS). After GBAS ground equipment installing at the airport, functionalities and performances of GBAS should be verified through the GBAS ground and flight testing. This paper describes the methods and results for GBAS flight test using the flight inspection aircraft at Gimpo International Airport. From the test results, we confirmed that the VDB data was received without misleading within the VDB coverage of Gimpo International Airport, and VDB field strength, protection level, and course alignment accuracy met the evaluation's criteria.

GBAS는 Differential GPS(DGPS) 개념을 활용하여 공항근처 23NM 반경 이내에 위치한 항공기에 정밀위치서비스와 정밀접근서비스를 제공하는 시스템으로, GBAS 지상장비는 공항에 설치된 이후에 지상 및 비행시험평가를 통해 그 기능 및 성능을 검증하도록 되어있다. 본 논문에서는 김포국제공항에 설치된 GBAS 지상장비에 대해 비행검사용 항공기를 이용한 비행시험 방법 및 결과를 분석하여 기술하였다. 시험 결과 김포공항의 GBAS 신호통달범위 내에서 VDB 데이터가 오류 없이 정상적으로 수신되었으며, VDB 전계강도, 보호수준, 코스정렬 정확도 등도 평가 요구조건을 충분히 만족시키는 것을 확인하였다.
