The status of the Joint University Program is given. Brief synopsis of some areas of research follow. The study of spectrum efficient methods for transmitting weather information to aircraft has resulted in definition of an improved amplitude and phase modulation process which permits reutilization of voice channels for both voice and data. The system is being implemented for testing. Multisensor navigation systems introduce increased flexibility and performance for aviation, at the expense of increased complexity. Insuring a high level of system reliability and integrity requires that faults not only be detected, but also isolated to specific elements, so that the remaining capabilities of the system may be used with confidence. An algorithm was developed. The JUP has served as a vehicle for reporting work accomplished in evoked potential vision tracking experiments to determine the engineering parameters of this input and control method. Application of GPS in an interferometric mode permits accurate measurement of differential motion; aircraft attitude may be determined using GPS only, with multiple antennas.
