Performance -based Navigation (PBN)

19
RNP 1
Arrival and departure phases of flight
With on-board performance monitoring and alerting function (usually RAIM)
Lateral TSE must be within ±1 NM for at least 95 per cent of the total flight time
For terminal airspace with no or limited ATS surveillance, with low to medium density
traffic
Based on GNSS
Pilots must not fly a SID or STAR unless it is retrievable by route name from the on-
board navigation database and conforms to the charted route
Route may be modified through the insertion (from database) or deletion of way-
points
Manual entry is not permitted

RNP APCH
Approach phase of flight
With on-board performance monitoring and alerting function (usually RAIM or SBAS)
Lateral TSE varies with minima and approach segment (initial, intermediate, final,
missed)
Based on:
GNSS for LNAV minimum
GNSS + barometric VNAV for LNAV/VNAV minimum*
GNSS augmented by SBAS for LP and LPV minima

*GNSS-based vertical guidance may be used if certified for the purpose.

Performance Based Navigation (PBN)


Pilots must not fly a SID or STAR unless it is retrievable by route name from the on-
board navigation database and conforms to the charted route
RNP APCH to LNAV minima is a non-precision instrument approach procedure designed
for 2D approach operations
LPV Final Approach Segment is specially coded into a Data Block inside the on-board
navigation database. It is known as the FAS DB
RNP APCH to LPV minima requires a FAS data-block
