Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) GBAS (Ground-Based Augmentation System) is a system based on the differential GPS technique for aircraft precision approach and landing near and at the airport using C/A pseudorange. In general, ionospheric delay at user receivers will be removed simultaneously with the other error sources using differential correction dataset that is transmitted from a ground segment of GBAS. However, it is pointed out that a large spatial gradient of ionospheric delay between ground GPS monitoring station and aircraft might produce significant vertical positioning error in aircraft side through "the carrier smoothing processing". Therefore, the ionospheric delay gradient is now a major integrity risk for GBAS because it must protect any users within its service area anytime from positioning errors greater than a certain threshold. Therefore, we need to estimate local-scale spatial and temporal variation of ionospheric delay exactly.
This paper presents results from an investigation of ionospheric delay that might influence GBAS especially with a focus to local-scale spatial gradient using the nation-wide dense GPS network in Japan (GEONET; GPS earth observation network), which currently consists of about 1,000 GPS stations with a typical separation of 20 km.
