An Evaluation of the Need for Deck Motion Prediction on the Wave-Off Advisory System

Abstract

A statistical model of the carrier wave-off situation is developed using experimentally measured data for carrier deck motion and aircraft approach geometry. This model is used to estimate the effect of ramp motion on the operation of the WOAS (Wave-Off Advisory System). In this manner the performance gains that could be achieved by adding a Deck Motion Prediction System to the WOAS are evaluated.
