L1C broadcasting started when GPS III Control Segment (OCX) Block 1 becomes operational, scheduled for 2022. [43] [19] The L1C signal will reach full operational status when being broadcast from at least 24 GPS Block III satellites, projected for the late 2020s. [54] Implementation will provide C/A code to ensure backward compatibility.
