IRNSS is an independent regional navigation satellite system being developed by India. Consider the following statements regarding IRNSS

1. IRNSS will provide two types of services, namely, Standard Positioning Service (SPS) which is provided to all the users and Restricted Service (RS), which is an encrypted service provided only to the authorized users.

2. Application of IRNSS includes Vehicle tracking and fleet management, Integration with mobile phones and Precise Timing.

3. The IRNSS space segment consists of six satellites, with three satellites in geostationary orbit and three satellites in inclined geosynchronous orbit.

Explanation:

IRNSS is an independent regional navigation satellite system being developed by India.
It is designed to provide accurate position information service to users in India as well as the region
extending up to 1500 km from its boundary, which is its primary service area.
IRNSS will provide two types of services, namely, Standard Positioning Service (SPS) which is provided
to all the users and Restricted Service (RS), which is an encrypted service provided only to the
authorized users.
The IRNSS System is expected to provide a position accuracy of better than 20 m in the primary service
area.
Components of IRNSS
• IRNSS comprises of a space segment and a ground segment.
• The IRNSS space segment consists of seven satellites, with three satellites in geostationary orbit and
four satellites in inclined geosynchronous orbit.
• IRNSS ground segment is responsible for navigation parameter generation and transmission, satellite
control, ranging and integrity monitoring and time keeping .
Applications of IRNSS
• Terrestrial, Aerial and Marine Navigation
• Disaster Management
• Vehicle tracking and fleet management
• Integration with mobile phones
• Precise Timing
• Mapping and Geodetic data capture
• Terrestrial navigation aid for hikers and travelers
• Visual and voice navigation for drivers
