The GPS is a satellite based radio navigation aid. GPS PRIMARY is an Airbus term defining an operational concept. It means that adequate GPS accuracy and integrity are provided and that GPS is available as the basis for the FM position. The GPS fitted to the Airbus family of aircraft monitor the integrity of the position information provided, and give indications of when this position information cannot be relied upon.
The position calculated by the twin GPS receivers is added to the IRS calculated position producing a GPIRS position. This is then fed to the FMGCs and a FM position is produced. At take off, even with GPS, the FM position is updated to runway threshold (+ T/O SHIFT if applicable). The FMGCs will use the GPIRS position as the FM position so long as GPS PRIMARY is indicated on the MCDU PROG page.
Reasonableness tests on the GPIRS and IRS positions are carried out and any unreasonable position is disregarded for the purpose of FM position calculation. The table below summarizes how FM position is derived with and without GPS PRIMARY.
FM POSITION
WITHOUT GPS WITH GPS
On ground before T.O. Mix IRS position GPIRS
At T.O. Runway threshold (+ T/O shift) GPIRS
Flight MIX IRS & Radio Position (tending towards Radio Position) GPIRS
Flight without GPS or Radio Position update MIX IRS position + Last memorized FM position, gradually tending towards IRS position.
