The modernization program aims, among other things, to provide signal redundancy and improve positioning accuracy, signal availability, and system integrity. The modernization program will include the addition of a civil code (C/A-code) on the L2 frequency and two new military codes (M-codes) on both the L1 and the L2 frequencies [5]. These codes will be added to the last 12 Block IIR satellites, which will be launched at the beginning of 2003. , C/A-code on both L1 and L2 16 Introduction to GPS frequencies) allows a user with a stand-alone GPS receiver to correct for the effect of the ionosphere (the upper layer of the atmosphere), which is a major error source (see Chapter 3 for details).
