AVIONICS COST DEVELOPMENT FOR CIVIL APPLICATION OF GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM

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.
