This statement should incorporate all aspects of PNT services and all applications and modes of PNT use.

While I offer my thoughts on this need for the United States, the arguments…

For interplanetary missions, the determination of S/C state vector (position and velocity) is required both for navigation purposes and science operations. The main error sources affecting S/C tracking data are the solar corona and the interplanetary plasma, which could be removed by using the multifrequency link technique between the probe and the ground station [1]. Once solar plasma noise has been removed…
