Satellite Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) are a type of satellite communication system that provides additional accuracy, integrity, and availability to Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) such as GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo. SBAS systems use a network of ground-based reference stations to monitor the GNSS signals and transmit corrections and integrity messages to users via geostationary satellites. These corrections and messages are then used to improve the accuracy, integrity, and availability of the GNSS signals. SBAS systems are used in a variety of applications, including aviation, maritime, and land-based navigation, surveying, and mapping. They are also used in precision agriculture, autonomous vehicles, and other applications that require precise positioning. Some companies in the SBAS market include Honeywell, Thales, Rockwell Collins, Garmin, and Trimble. Show Less Read more
