Phones that pick up signals from orbiting U.S. Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites are now commonplace. The phone uses that information to work out the location and display it on a map. In a similar fashion, the GPS signals can be used to assist aircraft during take off and land as well as in flying shorter routes to their destination. But, as there can be hundreds of passengers in a single aircraft, the use of GPS for such purposes in civil aviation demands higher One important way to meet the demands of civil aviation has been through what is known as a Satellite-Based Augmentation System (SBAS).
