  • The instrument landing system (ILS) is an international standard established by the International civil aviation organization (ICAO) as one of the landing support facilities for aircraft. This system consists of a localizer (LOC) that provides orientation information about the runway to indicate the approach direction, a glide path (GP) that indicates the appropriate approach glide slope, and three of marker beacons (MB) that indicates the distance to the runway landing edge. In this study, we predicted the received signal strength by altitude and distance for LOC signals transmitted from the ground and analyzed the difference with the signal strength measured in the actual environment. Our objective is to develop signal strength prediction technology and apply it to the real environment.

  • Since instrument landing system currently operating in most airports is operating in single-pass, it is not possible to accommodate a large number of aircraft. A satellite navigation system GBAS using a GNSS has been developed to solve these limitation when air traffic increases. GBAS is better than the ILS in position accuracy and capable of landing through multiple paths rather than a single path, the aircraft can perform varied landing procedures. In this paper, after we established a virtual ILS procedures at Taean Airfield in which ILS installation is impossible due to environmental requirements and airspace restrictions, flight test was performed by Cessna Skyhawk 172 to compare the virtual ILS procedures and curved approach procedure and the advantage of curved approach was confirmed.

  • The solar storm generated by solar activity can be impact on earth in various area. If solar storm impact on Navaids system, it will be a serious problem for aviation and human safety. The impact analysis of solar strom on Navaids system are performed in three area, ILS, GPS navigation and radio communication for aviation. Analysis result show that Instrument Landing System(LLZ, GP, MB) and Navaids system(VOR, DME, Radar) are not impacted by the solar storm, but GPS system is impacted by solar storm. Also analysis result show that VHF/UHF radio system are not impacted by solar storm, but HF radio system is impacted by solar storm.

  • ILS(Instrument Landing System) is the international standard system for approach and landing guidance. ILS was adopted by ICAO(International Civil Aviation Organization) in 1947 and is currently being used in commercial systems. To design the digital transmitter and receiver modules that can be mounted in the integrated ILS, we propose the digital design methods of digital double AM modulator and demodulator using FPGA chip, DDS(Direct Digital Synthesizer) for generation of sampling clock, demodulator of DDC(Digital Down Converter) structure, and spectrum analyzer using DSP chip. We demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed design method through experiments using developed transmitter and receiver modules. This system can be used as a high-performance commercial system.

  • In this paper, course structure and course width were studied among the main performances of the system to derive the required performance of the modulation index, output power, and phase change specifications of the instrument landing system (ILS) localizer power amplifier. To satisfy the course structure's deviation standard (± 5 uA), the difference in depth of modulation (DDM) deviation standard of the carrier with sideband (CSB) amplifier was standardized to ± 1 uA(0.001 DDM). CSB 30 W power amplifier was designed, and through the modulation compensation circuit, sum in depth of modulation (SDM) is 40% ± 0.1% and DDM is ± 0.0005 DDM in the operating output range(45 dBm ~ 35 dBm). In addition, the course width and displacement sensitivity specifications were analyzed through simulation, and the ± 0.1° change applied during comissioning inspection, which is the most stringent standard, was applied. The output variation of the suppressed with sideband only ( SBO) amplifier was ± 2 mW or less, The phase was standardized to within ± 3 ° and the characteristics were satisfied. By applying a compensation circuit according to output power and temperature, stable modulation index, output, and phase characteristics were obtained.

  • ADS-B can provide high accurate position information and faster update rate than Radar system and it is a technique that can supplement or replace the Radar. Recently ADS-B has been applied to the actual aircraft operation because to increase air transportation traffic and required to high accurate surveillance. In this study, we surveyed analysis of position deviation distribution analysis and received actual ADS-B trajectory data for conformed precise surveillance on the near airport area using ADS-B message. For that, we received the precision instrument approach ADS-B trajectory data using instrument landing system, and can analyse about target deviation distribution on the final approach segment about precision instrument approach. The result of analysis is mean distance of target deviation -0.04 m and standard deviation 6.71 m on between ADS-B target and extended runway centerline. Also that is to conformed the ADS-B message trajectory available to provide relatively exact surveillance information.

  • The Precision Aerial Delivery System is an instrument designed to improve the poor landing accuracy of aerial delivery system with conventional circular parachutes, and is equipped with an Airborne Guidance Unit to safely transport supplies to the desired destination. Currently, the landing accuracy of the PADS product is reported as CEP50 100m and also differs significantly, depending on the actual topography and weather environment. In this study, HILS was constructed based on the 6DOF nonlinear modeling of PADS to analyze the maneuver characteristics of Ram Air Parachute under wind environments. By using the new algorithm a precision soft landing algorithm including Energy Management and Final Approach is designed. HILS results show that it is possible to achieve a precise soft landing within CEP50 40m, and it can be exploited to develop an actual PADS drop test.

  • In recent, there has been remarkable progress in the field of GPS applications. In a few years, an appreciable number of aircraft will adopt GPS as a landing guidance system because GPS is more economic, more reliable and more accurate than any other aviation systems. In this respect, we have performed several helicopter landing flight tests based on the real-time DGPS system made in SNUGL (Seoul National University GPS Laboratory). From the experimental results, we found several problems Which should be fixed to adopt DGPS as a aircraft landing guidance system. In this paper, we will introduce the problems found in tests and also suggest modifications to solve the problems. Our modifications can be classified into three parts. The first is about the attitude determination with single GPS antenna. The second deals with the cockpit display module. The display was devised to integrate the Instrument Landing System(ILS) with tunnel-the-sky using virtual reality. With the display, pilot can achieve more safe landings. The last part is the digital map. We inserted digital map into our system and put direction indicator on the map using position information from GPS. It is very useful for pilot to find airports even in bad weather. Using the newly designed DGPS landing system, we conducted flight test at Kimhae International Airport, Pusan, Korea. It was successful! Our system can also satisfy Category-I criterion for aircraft landing approach and determine attitude angle with a high level of reliability. It is supported by video materials.

  • Instrument flight simulators are used for training the interpretation and operation techniques for all kinds of aircraft instruments, cockpit procedures, etc., in order that pilots cope with the situations which can be occurred in actual flight. However, the simulators developed so far are concerned about operating in same environment to actual aircraft. And little researches concentrate on developing systematic training system for basic tasks and takeoff-landing procedures, and automatic evaluation methods on the training results. Therefore, in this paper, we propose implementation and evaluation methods for flight tasks such as tasks in flight, takeoff-landing procedures and course flight.
