Abstract
A specific implementation of navigation message authentication (NMA) for civil GPS anti-spoofing is proposed. The notion of GNSS signal authentication is defined in probabilistic terms. This work proposes a practical, backwardcompatible NMA strategy for the civil L2/L5 civil navigation (CNAV) message. The proposal is sufficiently detailed to facilitate near-term implementation of securityhardened civil GPS.
