eloran CRADA Summary Without differential corrections or augmentations, eloran results have easily demonstrated the ability to meet the (+/-) one microsecond timing synchronization requirement proposed in the 2014 Federal Radionavigation Plan (FRP) Without differential corrections or augmentations, eloran results within a 500 mile range of the test transmitter location have demonstrated (+/-) 500 nanoseconds synchronization to UTC Without differential corrections or augmentations, 95% of all data collected was within 200 Nanoseconds of UTC With differential corrections at certain locations in the vicinity of a Differential eloran Reference Station, eloran demonstrated time synchronization to UTC well within 100 nanoseconds eloran was proven in field trials to be a successful backup to GPS timing in a Wide Area Multilateration (WAM) aviation application, providing equivalent performance to GPS Additional aviation testing is ongoing, with plans underway to demonstrate precise time synchronization, Loran Data Channel (LDC) communication, and compass (heading) applications in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and General Aviation aircraft in 2017 eloran in Smart Grid application Proofs-of-Concept are planned for later in 2017
