Abstract
In order to capitalize on commercial advancements in GPS receiver technology that reduce size, weight, and power requirements while further enhancing capabilities, it is suggested that the next generation of GPS receivers should be based on commercial units. The SB-24 space-qualified GPS receiver presently discussed will be less expensive to develop than a dedicated, space-qualified unit and will be predicated on in-house-developed commercial technology.
