Geodesy. The Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS), with an operational name of NavIC (acronym for Navigation with Indian Constellation; also, nāvik 'sailor' or 'navigator' in Indian languages), [2] is an autonomous regional satellite navigation system that provides accurate real-time positioning and timing services. [3]
The satellite has been developed at a cost of ₹ 1.25 billion (US$15 million), [3] [4] and was launched on 1 July 2013. It will provide IRNSS services to the Indian public, which would be a system similar to Global Positioning System (GPS) but only for India and the region around it.
The GPS-aided GEO augmented navigation (GAGAN) is an implementation of a regional satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) by the Government of India. [2] It is a system to improve the accuracy of a GNSS receiver by providing reference signals. [3] The Airports Authority of India (AAI)'s efforts towards implementation of operational SBAS can ...
The Indian National Satellite System or INSAT, is a series of multipurpose geostationary satellites launched by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to satisfy telecommunications, broadcasting, meteorology, and search and rescue operations. Commissioned in 1983, INSAT is the largest domestic communication system in the Indo-Pacific Region.
IRNSS-1I is an Indian navigational satellite that forms part of the Indian Regional Navigational Satellite System. IRNSS-1I is the ninth satellite launched for the IRNSS constellation and one of five IRNSS satellites currently operational. [ 6 ] The satellite is intended to replace the failed IRNSS-1A, and complete the constellation of ...
Following the successful demonstration flights of Bhaskara-1 and Bhaskara-2 satellites launched in 1979 and 1981, respectively, India began to develop the indigenous Indian Remote Sensing (IRS) satellite program to support the national economy in the areas of agriculture, water resources, forestry and ecology, geology, water sheds, marine fisheries and coastal management.
IRNSS-1C is the third out of seven in the Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS) series of satellites after IRNSS-1A and IRNSS-1B. The IRNSS constellation of satellites is slated to be launched to provide navigational services to the region. It was launched on 15 October 2014 at 20:02 UTC by PSLV-C26 and will be placed in ...
