REQUIRED Navigation Performance (RNP) [6L]
This field shows the RNP value (Required Navigation Performance) used
as reference by the system to determine the level of confidence
HIGH/LOW.
Defaulted RNP values are:
− En-route : 2NM,
− Terminal area: 1NM,
− Precision & GPS approach: 0.3NM,
− Non-precision approach: 0.5NM,
Or
− Values defined in NAVdb,
Or
− Values defined according to
operator’s requirements in OPC file.

EPE is the radius of a circle of uncertainty within which
position is located, with a probability of 95%.

Its value is displayed at [6R] under ESTIMATED.
Current EPE is computed by the FMGC, based on n
