Instrument Landing System Mathematical Modeling Study for Orlando International Airport Runway 35L Localizer, Orlando, Florida. Final Airside Docking Plan (Scheme IIIA)
Abstract
This Technical Note describes the instrument landing system (ILS) math modeling performed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Technical Center at the request of the Southern Region. Computed data are presented showing the effects of airside terminals with simulated docked and taxiing aircraft on the performance of an ILS localizer proposed for runway 35L at the Orlando International Airport. The Southern Region is concerned that reflections from two proposed airside terminals with docked and taxiing aircraft may degrade the localizer course beyond category II/III tolerances. Modeled course structure results indicate that category II/III localizer performance should be obtained with the Wilcox Mark II, 14-element, dual-frequency log periodic antenna and both airside terminals with docked and taxiing aircraft at the currently proposed locations. Computed clearance orbit results indicate satisfactory linearity, course crossover, and signal clearance levels.
