Analytical Study of the Adequacy of VOR/DME and DME/DME Guidance Signals for V/STOL Area Navigation in the Los Angeles Area.

Abstract

An analysis was performed by personnel of the National Aviation Facilities Experimental Center (NAFEC) to determine the adequacy of very high frequency omnirange/distance measuring equipment (VOR/DME) guidance signals for vertical/short takeoff and landing (V/STOL) aircraft area navigation (RNAV) in the Los Angeles (LAX) area. Guidance signals were derived from existing VOR/DME and 'converted' VOR facilities. (Author)
