Abstract :
An Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) system utilizing LORAN-C which has been cost-optimized is described. The various sources of positioning errors are enumerated and their effects are quantified through theoretical and empirical techniques. These results are used to generate a performance specification for the continental U.S. This specification is compared to field test results from two operating demonstration systems.
