DESCRIPTION:Presentation: Categories for Knowledge Representation\nAbstract
 : The Global Positioning System (GPS) has greatly increased efficiency and
  effectiveness of multiple industries that leverage GPS signals for Positi
 oning\, Navigation\, and Timing (PNT). The next generation of GPS III and 
 GPS IIIF satellites are poised to increase performance for GPS users world
 wide. GPS consists of three segments: space\, ground\, and user. The Space
  Segment includes a constellation of 31 satellites with six GPS III satell
 ites in the constellation and four more available for launch. When launche
 s begin in 2026\, GPS IIIF satellites will broadcast 60X more anti-jam pow
 er for warfighters. Lockheed Martin also supports US Space Force operation
 s of the GPS Control Segment\, which includes a master and alternate maste
 r control stations with 16 worldwide monitor stations that constantly GPS 
 satellite signals. User Segment includes billions of civilian GPS receiver
 s and low millions of military GPS user equipment. The GPS enterprise has 
 worked together seamlessly for decades to deliver robust PNT services to c
 ivil and military users. One of the most important examples of user servic
 es is the augmented use of GPS for Space-Based Augmentation System (SBAS) 
 services utilized by civil aviation for precision approaches. SBAS provide
 s integrity assurance for aviation operations without Instrument Landing S
 ystem (ILS) infrastructure. This presentation provides an overview of GPS 
 satellite modernization and how SBAS leverages GPS for Safety-of-Life oper
 ations.\n\nSpeaker(s): Dr Mark Crews\, \, \n\nRoom: 300\, Bldg: Ritchie En
