A network system can communicate with user and provider devices to facilitate the provision of a network-based service. The network system can identify optimal service providers to provide services requested by users. The network can utilize context data in matching service providers with users. In particular, the network system can determine, based on context data associated with a user, whether to perform pre-request matching for that user. A service provider who is pre-request matched with the user can be directed by the network system to relocate via a pre-request relocation direction. When the user submits the service request after the pre-request match, the network system can either automatically transmit an invitation to the pre-request matched service provider or can perform post-request matching to identify an optimal service provider for the user.

Systems and methods are disclosed that include fault monitoring for a radar altitude device. Fault monitoring is performed by receiving first altitude data from the radar altitude device, receiving second altitude data from a second altitude measuring device, receiving terrain data from a terrain database, determining a fault condition threshold adaptively based on the terrain data, determining whether the radar altitude device is exhibiting a fault condition based on the first and second altitude data and the fault condition threshold, and outputting an indication of the fault condition based on the determination of whether the radar altitude device is exhibiting the fault condition.

An aircraft receives pseudorange input from a plurality of satellites of an augmentation system. Each pseudorange input includes a precise position solution and error data. The aircraft receives a high frequency measurement from an inertial navigation system. The aircraft applies the precise position solution, error data, and high frequency measurement to a set of parallel Schmidt extended Kalman filters to produce a corrected position solution and integrity data. The aircraft applies the integrity data to a receiver autonomous integrity monitoring system to produce a protection level for the corrected position solution. The aircraft performs an aircraft operation using the corrected position solution and protection level.

A radar system operates at a carrier frequency near the oxygen absorption line. A selected range bin is monitored to measure the signal-to-noise ratio. The signal-to-noise ratio value is used to adjust the carrier frequency so as to maintain a preselected signal-to-noise ratio.

A distance sensor and a measured object are positioned at a known distance from each other. A measured distance between the distance sensor and the measured object is obtained from the distance sensor, where the distance sensor uses a plurality of signals at a plurality of angles to generate the measured distance. The known distance and the measured distance are compared in order to test the distance sensor and produce a test result.
