What is SBAS?
A Space-Based Augmentation System is a regional augmentation system for GPS and/or GLONASS. An SBAS system is based on a networked ground segment and navigation payloads on-board of geostationary satellites whose main purpose is to provide higher position accuracies, better availability and continuity of service and integrity messages to the users of space based navigation systems. Currently existing SBASs are based on DO229 data exchange standard.
