9.1.1 Integrity concepts
The ability to navigate safely means users must trust their estimated position with a high degree of confidence. The trustworthiness of position estimates is the study of positioning integrity, which is adapted from TR 22.872 [30] as follows: Positioning Integrity: A measure of the trust in the accuracy of the position...

Positioning accuracy and positioning integrity are related but separate concepts, and for many use cases, accuracy alone is insufficient to meet the r...

9.1.1.2 Integrity key performance indicators (KPIs)
The following KPIs for positioning integrity are defined for the study: Target Integrity Risk (TIR): The probability that the positioning error exceeds the Alert Limit (AL) without warning the user within the required Time-to-Alert (TTA). NOTE: The TIR is usually defined as a probability rate per some time unit (e.g., ...

9.1.1.3 Integrity protection level (PL)
The Protection Level (PL) is a real-time upper bound on the positioning error at the required degree of confidence, where the degree of confidence is determined by the TIR probability. The PL is defined as follows: Protection Level: The PL is a statistical upper-bound of the Positioning Error (PE) that ensures that, th...

9.1.1.4 Relationship between the PL and KPIs
The TIR is a design constraint for a positioning system and represents the probability that a positioning error exceeds the AL, but the positioning system fails to alert the user within the required period of time (i.e., TTA). In practice, the TIR is very small. For example, <10-7/hr TIR translates to one failure permi...
