installationsopt00amos.pdf (4.351Mb)Abstract
The NAVSTAR Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space
based navigation system. This system is scheduled to be
installed in a variety of military platforms. The receiver
system for GPS will be installed in US Navy surface ships
between 1989 and 1996.
This thesis compares three alternative methods of
completing this installation program: 1) installation during
a ships regularly scheduled overhaul, 2) installation by a
special team of technicians, and 3) installation by the
ships assigned perscnnel. The strengths and weaknesses of
each method are discussed. A recommendation of installation
during regular overhaul is made.
