Abstract

Navigation with the aid of satellite has got realistic importance in the aviation industry, ship movement and strategic purpose throughout the world for all countries. A GPS system of America is providing navigation support worldwide. India has taken an initiative to develop an independent navigation system under Indian control having a constellation of seven GSO satellites and has established navigation facilities for this purpose. The Indian NavIC system is broadcasting navigation data for Indian continent as well as 1500 km beyond its geopolitical boundary. This paper brings ideas about India’s efforts to develop its own indigenous navigation system and its application in India and the surrounding region.
