Performance -based Navigation (PBN)

19
internet-based RAIM prediction tool. During flight, the receiver’s RAIM (FD or FDE) algorithm
monitors the position. Approach will be discontinued if fault detection detects a position failure
when integrity is provided by FDE.

LPV is based on SBAS integrity; if RAIM is unavailable the approach can be performed
anyway.

On-board performance monitoring shall not be regarded as error monitoring.

Alerts are issued when the system cannot guarantee with sufficient integrity that the position
meets the accuracy requirement.

When an alert is issued, the probable reason is the loss of capability to validate the position

data (insufficient satellites being a potential reason).

Performance Based Navigation (PBN)


Abnormal Situations
Abnormal and contingency procedures are to be used in case of the loss of PBN capability.

Abnormal procedures should be available to address cautions and warnings resulting from the
following conditions:

1. Failure of the navigation system components including those affecting flight technical
error (e.g. failures of the flight director or auto pilot);

2. RAIM alert or loss of integrity function;

3. Warning flag or equivalent indicator on the lateral and/or vertical navigation display;

4. Degradation of the GNSS approach mode during a LPV approach procedure (e.g.
downgrade from LPV to LNAV);

5. Low altitude alert (if applicable)
