High latitude aspects of a differential GPS aircraft landing system

The use of differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) in an aircraft landing system at high latitude has been investigated. Both the effects of the high latitude on geometry and accuracy and the effects of scintillations on availability have been studied. Data was taken at McMurdo, and South Pole...
