IRS drifts. This results in inaccuracy. This inaccuracy is assumed constant when GPS n radio updating goes offline, known as BIAS. This constant it applied back to IRS position to approximate present position. Without GPS n radio updating the FM reckons your position by using IRS applied with the bias. This means positioning is always by IRS updated via GPS, radio or BIAS.
