Abstract :
To meet future system requirements, it is envisioned that it will be necessary to incorporate GPS receivers on the launchers and into the missiles. The size, weight, power, performance, number of channels, and cost of these GPS receivers are critical. Capabilities that future GPS receivers will need to meet envisioned US Army missile system requirements are outlined.<>
