Performance Based Navigation (PBN) is an aviation technology to reduce emissions and noise pollution and to raise efficiency in air traffic flow. It is ICAO’s effort and objective to redefine the regional differences of various Area navigation (RNAV) and Required Navigation Performance (RNP) specifications into a globally harmonized set of PBN applications. PBN provides the means for flexible air traffic routes and terminal procedures.
