Visitors will be requested to sign an attendance roster.
The agenda for the meeting includes the following topics:
• Examine emerging trends and requirements for PNT services in U.S. and international arenas through PNT Board policy and technical evaluations.
• Update on PNT Policy and Global Positioning System (GPS) modernization.
• Prioritize current and planned GPS capabilities and services while assessing future PNT architecture alternatives with a focus on affordability.
• Examine methods in which to Protect, Toughen, and Augment (PTA) access to GPS/Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) services in key domains for multiple user sectors.
• Assess economic impacts of GPS on the United States and in select international regions, with a consideration towards effects of potential PNT service disruptions if radio spectrum interference is introduced.
• Explore opportunities for enhancing the interoperability of GPS with other emerging international GNSS.
• Review the potential benefits, perceived vulnerabilities, and any proposed regulatory constraints to accessing foreign Radio Navigation Satellite Service (RNSS) signals in the United States and subsequent impacts on multi-GNSS receiver markets.
It is imperative that the meeting be held on these dates to accommodate the scheduling priorities of the key participants.
