A differential GPS mechanization of an external data link concept under development at NASA Ames Research Center is discussed. The system is intended to evaluate the use of differential GPS to support helicopter approach operation. Analytical techniques for static testing and evaluation of the system hardware and software performance in real time are described. Several techniques that have been used to detect and rectify a specific problem encountered during the tests are dicussed. An example of flight test results using the validated system is provided.
