The  objective  of  GAGAN‐FOP  is  to  realize  a certified and   operational SBAS for all phases of  flight path over  the  Indian  FIR    to provide the air navigation services of 

RNP 0.1 en route navigation within Indian  FIR 

APV‐1/1.5  precision  approach  over  the landmass of Indian FIR

Grid Based Ionosphere Model For GAGAN

IGM‐MLDF (ISRO GIVE Model‐Multi Layer Data Fusion):

• New Multi layer Grid Based Model

• Uses Data Fusion Technique• Provides GIVD, GIVE at 350 km (as 

per MOPS)

‐ This model does not call for any 

change to the existing SBAS message 

structure

‐ No change for the legacy users

GAGAN INRES Locations (15)

Page 5: Ionosphere Modelling In India For Satellite Navigation ... · IRNSS: INDIAN REGIONAL NAVIGATION SATELLITE SYSTEM Service Type Freq. Band Standard Positioning Service L5(1176.45Mhz)

• Joint activity between ISRO and Raytheon• Algorithm evaluated using the measurement based model data (ISRO‐TEC data) for selected nominal & stormy days over 2004‐07

• Algorithm is under evaluation with high quality live data collected over 15 INRES locations

• The live data (supertruth) contains measurements from 2/3 INREEs from each of the INRES

IGM‐MLDF: Preliminary Results

GAGAN TEC Data

Activities include:

• Data Collection and Archival

• Model Comparison and 

Validation

• Testing New Algorithms

Measurement Based Ionosphere Model ‐ ISRO TEC Model

• Based on real data from GAGAN  TEC stations combined with Physics‐based Semi‐empirical Model

• Provides TEC Map over Indian region

Depletion Studies •Depletion:‐ Post sunset events‐ Local phenomena (i.e., Depletion observed by an user may/may not be observed by any of the INRES )

‐ User protection against depletion: Mitigated through the ground model

•Observations:‐ Indicates that the depletion with >0.5 m magnitude occur during 5:30 p.m. – 3:30 a.m. local time. 

‐ Maximum observed depth:7 ‐7.5 m
