Abstract:

This study of costs for avionics for civil use of the Global Positioning System GPS, performed for the FAA Office of Systems Engineering Management OSEM, was based on a uniform approach to cost estimating with the assistance of a pricing model. The system evaluated is the military-developed Z set with appropriate packaging modifications to meet the requirements of air carrier avionics standards and the less stringent environmental and packaging requirements for general aviation.
