GPS is a global navigation satellite service provided by the US. Indian weather conditions due to fog and other disruptions make airline services very unpredictable during the winter season. Augmenting satellite navigation signals to enhance its availability, reliability is much more needed in the Indian subcontinent. Hence, a Geo Augmentation System GAGAN was initiated. Noting its large relevance to the public, its utility in the strategic sector and urge to provide secure and reliable satellite navigation service, many countries like Russia, China, Japan and European Union have started their own satellite navigation service. India is uniquely placed and its needs are critical, but regional. Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS) is a unique, low-cost and easy to maintain constellation.
