During the presentation of the development status of the [[BeiDou General Introduction|BeiDou]] system in the ION-GNSS 2011 congress,<ref>”Development of BeiDou Navigation Satellite System”, China Satellite Navigation Office, Sep 2011, ION GNSS 2011.</ref> the China Satellite Navigation Office listed the [[BeiDou Services|services]] that the BeiDou System would provide, and one of them was the wide range differential service, aiming at a positioning accuracy of 1 m; presumably, this wide range differential service corresponds to the SNAS system.
BDSBAS is integrated in the BeiDou system and uses BDS-3 type satellites to broadcast SBAS L1/L5 signal, augmenting BDS and GPS.

The People's Republic of China is developing its own SBAS, called BeiDou satellite-based augmentation system (BDSBAS and formerly Satellite Navigation Augmentation System (SNAS)) to provide SBAS services in China and sorrounding regions. In 2002, the company Novatel was awarded [1] with a contract for the provision of 12 receivers for the phase II of the development, and the receivers have already been delivered. These stations would complement the 11 ones already installed in and around Beijing for the phase I of the program.

BDSBAS is integrated in the BeiDou system and uses BDS-3 type satellites to broadcast SBAS L1/L5 signal, augmenting BDS and GPS. If they are recommended by ICAO SARPs, Galileo E1C/E5a and GLONASS L1/L3 will also be considered [2].

Development

In october 2017, 3 PRN codes (130, 143 and 144) were assigned at L1C/A and L5 for the BDSBAS system. The system was also recognized as an official SBAS provider in the ICAO family, being given its SBAS service provider identifier and the UTC standard identifier. The space segment is being defined to be conposed of three BD-3 GEO satellites (80º E, 110.5º E and 140º E). The ground segment is composed of an Operation and Control Center, Data Centers, Uplink Stations and Monitoring Stations. SBAS terminals would be able to receive RNSS navigation messages and wide area differential integrity information broadcast by GEO satellites. [3]

In 2018, the first BDS-3 GEO satellite was launched in November 1, 2018 onboard a Long March 3B and the broadcast of BDSBAS signal started in November 9, 2018, beginning the integration and test phase. [3]

During 2019, efforts were focused on improving the ground monitoring stations network. [3] The system is still being tested today and therefore cannot yet provide services for civil aviation but it is expected to initially provide APV-I service, and later on CAT-I service in China. [4]

Velocity accuracy 0.1 m/s
Service reliability Availability > 99 %
