The band 31.8-33.4 GHz is allocated to the radionavigation service on a primary basis and has been added to the list of frequencies available to aircraft (air carrier and private) stations and radionavigation land (unspecified) stations under the rules for Aviation Services.
After considering several options, the IRAC recommended to the NTIA that the radionavigation service allocations in the sub-band 31.8-32.3 GHz be limited to Federal Government use only, i.e., that the unused non-Federal Government radionavigation service allocation be deleted from the sub-band 31.8- 32.3 GHz.
By limiting future non-Federal Government radionavigation services to the sub- band 32.3-33.4 GHz, NASA's deep space operations in the band 31.8-32.3 GHz will be protected and sufficient spectrum will be available to accommodate such commercial and private radionavigation services as may develop in the future.

In support of manufacturers and users, the Association advocates that all radionavigation and time distribution systems for use by the civil sector have transmitted signal specifications and signal availability formally published in appropriate international and/or national instruments and that the longevity of the service provided is clearly defined.
The ILA actively participates in national and international radionavigation and time distribution planning and practice by providing comments and suggestions for the generation of international and national plans, through the encouragement of its members to contribute to committees and associations, and by offering a professional forum for the interchange and discussion of ideas and data.
The ILA recognizes that there is a substantial amount of development work to be completed with Loran-C and associated technologies as the system spreads to worldwide use, and campaigns for the continued political, technical, and financial support of these activities.

 Satellite radionavigation receiver - Patent 5343210
The reception chain is of a homodyne type and is formed by a single frequency-conversion stage followed by an amplifier chain coupled to an encoding circuit for encrypting the signals travelling between each amplifier before their transmission to the navigation computer.
It applies in particular to the construction of a receiver of the known system of C/A code GPS satellite radionavigation, descriptions of which can be found in the publications from the Institute of Navigation, Washington D.C., entitled "Global positioning system" No. 0.936406-01-1 and No. 0.936406-00-3.
These signals which are emitted by the satellites of the system, are gathered on the ground by an aerial of hemispherical radiation pattern, with a very weak signal level, of the order of -133 dBm for each satellite received.
