EGNOS (European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service) is the European satellite-based augmentation service (SBAS) that complements the existing satellite navigation services provided by the US Global Positioning System (GPS) using the L1 C/A signal. EGNOS will augment both GPS and Galileo in the future (in EGNOS V3) using L1 and L5 frequencies.

EGNOS performances are usually described in terms of accuracy, integrity, availability and continuity.

EGNOS Performances Requirements

EGNOS has been designed to meet SBAS performance requirements for civil aviation operations down to Localizer Performance with Vertical Guidance (LPV) minima but EGNOS service might also be used in a wide range of other application domains (e.g. maritime, rail, road...):[1][2]

Typical Performances

The typical performances provided by EGNOS are presented in the next figures. For the computation, the day 6th December 2018, considered to be a representative day, has been selected. The images have been obtained using gmvBrave tool.[3]

Monitoring of EGNOS Performances

EGNOS performances are being monitored continuously by several entities, such as ESSP[4] and ESA.[5]

The EGNOS performance monitoring done by ESSP[4] includes figures on achieved availability, continuity and integrity. In addition, it forecasts the performances in terms of availability and integrity.

The monitoring done by ESA[5] is twofold. On the one hand, the messages, as broadcast by the EGNOS satellites, are analyzed to determine the status of several parameters, such as the GPS satellites which are augmented by EGNOS, the level of monitoring of the ionosphere over Europe or the achieved protection levels. On the other hand, ESA monitoring environment allows to select different reference stations and depicts the accuracy and integrity obtained for those sites.
