中国将推进北斗导航系统在航空领域的应用 - 2020年08月13日

China’s BeiDou Navigation Satellite (BDS) System has been tested on the nation’s domestically developed jets, including the C919 and ARJ21, to reduce the dependence on the US Global Positioning System (GPS) in aircraft navigation.
The Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) has released a three-step plan to make BDS one of the main navigation systems for passenger aircraft, Gu Xin, director general of the Shanghai Aircraft Airworthiness Certification Center of CAAC, told the Civil Avionics International Forum 2020 in Shanghai on Wednesday.
By the end of 2021, the BDS system will be applied in the positioning, navigation and monitoring of low-latitude general aviation. Demonstration applications will be developed on the C919, China’s first home-developed single-aisle passenger jet, by then, Gu told the forum.
