What is WAAS?
The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) is an FAA
funded service to improve the overall integrity of the GPS
signal for users in North America. WAAS is just one service
provider that adheres to the MOPS (Minimum Operational
Performance Standard) for global Satellite Based Augmentation
Systems (SBAS). Eventually there will be several services
of worldwide geostationary communication satellites that
broadcast integrity information and differential correction data
as transmitted by ground reference stations.
At this time WAAS is still in the developmental stage with a
goal of providing reliable signals with an accuracy of 7 meters
(21-22 feet) both horizontally and vertically 95% of the time.
Current tests have shown the actual accuracy to be on the
order of 2-3 meters (7-10 feet). This accuracy is comparable to
DGPS (as explained below), but without the need for a separate
beacon receiver. Since all SBAS systems use the same receiver
frequency, any SBAS system should be capable of providing
your GPS unit with increased accuracy at any location in the
world when others under development reach operational status.
In addition to satellites in orbit over the Earth, ground based
reference stations must also be in place near the region you are
located. Enabling WAAS in regions that are not supported by
ground stations, which correct position data, typically, does not
improve accuracy even when receiving signals from an SBAS
satellite. In fact it can degrade the accuracy to less than that
provided by GPS satellites alone. For this reason, your Garmin
GPS receiver, when in the "WAAS Enabled" mode, uses the
method that achieves the best accuracy. To enable/disable
WAAS, refer to the General Settings tab of the System Setup
Page of Garmin Que. For more information, go to http://gps.faa.
