An airborne TACAN receiver can be used in air-to-air mode to provide the approximate distance between two coordinating aircraft by selecting channels with 63 channels of separation (e.g., aircraft #1 sets channel 29 into its TACAN and aircraft #2 sets channel 92 into its TACAN.). It does not provide relative bearing.
Multifunctional Information Distribution System (MIDS) is the NATO name for the communication component of Link-16 developed by Xetron. [1]MIDS is an advanced command, control, communications, computing and intelligence system incorporating high-capacity, jam-resistant, digital communication links for exchange of near real-time tactical information, including both data and voice, among air ...
Google Maps is available as a mobile app for the Android and iOS mobile operating systems. The first mobile version of Google Maps (then known as Google Local for Mobile) was launched in beta in November 2005 for mobile platforms supporting J2ME. [194] [195] [196] It was released as Google Maps for Mobile in 2006. [197]
Based on google searches, RSBN appears to be a system that is similar to TACAN as well. -- Dual Freq 15:12, 7 January 2006 (UTC) [ reply ] From RANTEC sales page, "Antennas built by Rantec are currently in use by the U.S. military, by most free-world military forces, by the FAA and by many other civilian aviation authorities worldwide."
The SINCGARS operates on any of 2320 channels between 30 and 88 megahertz (MHz) with a channel separation of 25 kilohertz (kHz). It accepts either digital or analog inputs and superimposes the signal onto a radio frequency (RF) carrier wave. In FH mode, the input changes frequency about 100 times per second over portions of the tactical VHF-FM ...
DVOR (Doppler VOR) ground station, collocated with DME. On-board VOR display with CDI MCT DVOR, Manchester Airport, United Kingdom.. Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range Station (VOR) [1] is a type of short-range VHF radio navigation system for aircraft, enabling aircraft with a VOR receiver to determine the azimuth (also radial), referenced to magnetic north, between the aircraft to/from ...
In the TACAN system, signal strength variation due to rotation of the transmitting beam (amplitude modulation) determines the course bearing function. This function would be lost without a constant 2700-4800 pulse-pairs per second, carrier -like signal in cases of low or no interrogating aircraft.
Link 16 is a TDMA-based secure, jam-resistant, high-speed digital data link that operates in the radio frequency band 960–1,215 MHz, allocated in line with the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Radio regulations to the aeronautical radionavigation service and to the radionavigation satellite service.
