The MTSAT Satellite Augmentation System (MSAS) is the Japanese Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) System:[1] a GPS Augmentation system with the goal of improving its accuracy, integrity, and availability. First tests were accomplished successfully, and MSAS system for aviation use was declared operational in September 27, 2007,[2][3][4] providing a service of horizontal guidance for En-route through Non-Precision Approach.[1][2][5] The SBAS signal used to be transmitted from MTSAT (Multi-functional Transport Satellites) operated by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT). The SBAS signal that is made by MLIT is now transmitted from the QZS-3 GEO satellite using the QZSS SBAS transmission service since April 2020.[6]
MSAS Architecture Fundamentals
MSAS works by processing GPS data collected by a network of reference stations to generate the SBAS message which is uploaded to the GEO satellites. The GEO satellites broadcast this information to the user receivers, which compute the aircraft positioning and inform on potential alert messages.[5]
The main layers of MSAS architecture are:[5]
- MSAS Ground Segment: The ground segment is composed of Ground Monitor Station (GMS) that collect information on the GPS and MSAS signals. Then, the GMS send their data to the Master Control Stations (MCS) that compute precise differential corrections and integrity bounds and send them to the MSAS satellites for rebroadcast to the User Segment.
- MSAS Space Segment: The space segment is based on GEO satellites whose navigation payloads are in charge of broadcasting the correction messages generated by the Master Control Stations for reception by the User Segment.
- MSAS User Segment: The user segment is the GPS and SBAS-enabled receiver, which uses the information broadcast from each GPS satellite to determine its location and the current time, and receives the MSAS corrections from the Space Segment.
MSAS Architecture Evolution
MSAS V1 Architecture (2007 – 2020)
The Initial Performance Phase operated with a MTSAT, 2 Master Control Stations (MCS) and 6 Ground Monitor Stations (GMS) by 2020. [7]
-
MSAS V1 final configuration [7].
MSAS V2 Architecture (2020 – 2023)
The system update phase began with the operational takeover of the GEO QZS-3 satellite. The SBAS ground system is to be fully replaced with 2 MCS, 13 GMS and 3 Uplink Station in domestic. Performance will be the same of higher than the MSAS V1 system. [7]
MSAS V2 configuration [7].
MSAS V3 Architecture (2023 – TBD)
The LPV Performance Phase is to begin in 2023. The objective is to achieve vertical guidance (LPV operation) by using two or more GEO satellites. High performance ionosphere correction software needs to be developed for low latitude magnetic equatorial region using the research outcome from ENRI. [7]

MSAS V4 Architecture (2017 – TBD)
The DFMC Validation Phase started in 2017 with the DFMC SBAS experiment performed by ENRI using the QZS-2 satellite. The initial performance starts with LPV 200 in support of ICAO SARPs validation activity. QZS-3 and QZS-4 will be used for DFMC SBAS validation. [7]
