摘要
In current ground-based augmentation system (GBAS), the average vertical protection level(VPL) increase caused by non-nominal troposphere error is 2.29 m, the accuracy of bounding is reduced and the integrity risk is increased. Faced with the above problems, a real-time method was proposed based on the modified Hopfield model. With real-time method, the non-nominal troposphere error was calculated according to the real-time weather changes, satellite elevation angle and the distance between aircraft and ground station. Given the high requirement of the real-time method for very high frequency data broadcast(VDB) transmission bandwidth, a fitting method was proposed, in which error is a function of distance and elevation angle. Simulations compute the VPL under the flight scenarios of single point, approach area and terminal area with the aim of evaluating the impact of non-nominal troposphere error on GBAS integrity. The results show that, with the real-time bounding method, VPL is averagely increased by 1.55 m and the accuracy of bounding is increased by 32.52%; with fitting method, VPL is averagely increased by 1.27 m, the accuracy of bounding is increased by 44.54%, the VDB transmission data is less, and the GBAS integrity risk is decreased. © 2017, Editorial Board of JBUAA.
