Abstract

An enhanced LOng RAnge Navigation (eLORAN) system may include a plurality of eLORAN stations, each having an eLORAN antenna and an eLORAN transmitter that may transmit data over an eLORAN data channel and may transmit a series of eLORAN navigation RF pulses. An eLORAN control station may generate station specific eLORAN data and non-station specific eLORAN data, divide the non-station specific eLORAN data into non-specific eLORAN data subsets, and cause each eLORAN station to transmit the station specific eLORAN data and a corresponding non-station specific eLORAN data subset over the eLORAN data channel in a manner to optimize data throughput.
