Microwave Landing System Integration Study. Volume II. Engineering and Cost Analysis Report.

Abstract

The integration of the MLS into the avionics subsystems of selected Air Force aircraft was investigated in this study. Antenna configurations and signal processing and interface designs were developed. These designs were the basis for avionics environment, cost, and system effectiveness analysis of the retrofit of MLS into the C-130E, C-5A, FB-111A, and the F-15. The C-130E study was used for the comparative analysis of different approach capabilities and MLS configurations.
