EXPERIMENTATION WITH FLARESCAN VERTICAL GUIDANCE LANDING SYSTEM.
Abstract
Static and dynamic tests were conducted on Flarescan, a vertically scanned microwave guidance system, to determine its suitability for use in an all-weather landing system. Areas of investigation included lowangle coverage, position determining accuracy, siting effects, noise content, scan rate, scan direction, method of signal coding, type of antenna pattern, weather effects, interference susceptibility, optimum flight path characteristics, etc. (Author)
