The EGNOS system 11
The EGNOS service EGNOS Service provides Integrity Information Flags GPS SV as not usable, within 6 seconds from GPS failure Flags IGPS as not usable if ionospheric conditions are not smooth enough (e.g. Solar and geomagnetic storms,...) GPS orbit and ionospheric correctionsinformation, improving the accuracyto 1 2 M 12

EGNOS LPV Benefits (i) Reduction in Delays, Diversions & Cancelations of 48% (1) Increased accessibility to airports not equipped with ILS or during ILS outages Reduction in the decision height (DH) Improvement in service regularity No temperature restriction (compared to APV Baro) No RAIM check (compared to GPS NPA) Reduced costs and environmental impact Reduced fuel burn (saving money and decreasing emissions) Reduced noise footprints Use of more flexible route and procedure designs ANSP and Airport savings in infrastructure (installation and calibration of navaids) => reduced airport fees: ILS: installation 650k, calibration 32k/year VOR: installation 677k, calibration 33k/year NDB: installation 84k, calibration 4k/year LPV: installation 30k, review 1k every 4 years (1) Airlines/ANSP/Eurocontrol estimate Source: EGNOS Cost Benefit Analysis in Aviation Courtesy: L.E.K / GSA 17
EGNOS LPV Benefits (ii) Reduction in CFIT (Controlled Flight Into Terrain) of 74% (1) More accurate lateral and vertical guidance Enhanced situational awareness Increased automation (reduced cockpit workload) Stabilized approaches (reducing runway excursions) EGNOS provides operational, environmental, safety and economical benefits (1) Airlines/ANSP/Eurocontrol estimate Source: EGNOS Cost Benefit Analysis in Aviation Courtesy: L.E.K / GSA 18
EGNOS LPV Benefits (iii) EGNOS provides access to: Small/medium aerodromes in poor weather conditions and in challenging terrain environment Non-ILS equipped aerodromes (primary) Aerodromes during ILS outages 19
EGNOS Implementation Status > 31 EGNOS WORKING AGREEMENTS SIGNED AFTER THE SoL SERVICE DECLARATION > 250 EGNOS-BASED PROCEDURES OVER EUROPE > 181 LPV approaches > 76 APV-BARO approaches authorized to be flown with EGNOS in: Germany, France, Czech Rep, UK Plans by 2016 > 320 LPV Evolution of the EGNOS Service before end 2015 (?): LPV-200 ( i.e. SBAS CAT-I) in most of service area Source and More info: http://www.eraa.org/system/files/ops%20sept2014%20-%20egnos%20presentation.pdf http://egnos-portal.gsa.europa.eu/ http://www.essp-sas.eu/ 20
