  2. Instrument landing system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrument_landing_system

    ILS planes. An instrument landing system operates as a ground-based instrument approach system that provides precision lateral and vertical guidance to an aircraft approaching and landing on a runway, using a combination of radio signals and, in many cases, high-intensity lighting arrays to enable a safe landing during instrument meteorological conditions (IMC), such as low ceilings or reduced ...

    SX000i - International guide for the use of the S-Series of Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) specifications, is a specification developed jointly by a multinational team from the AeroSpace and Defence Industries Association of Europe (ASD) and Aerospace Industries Association (AIA). [1]

  4. Integrated library system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_library_system

    An integrated library system (ILS), also known as a library management system (LMS), [1] [2] is an enterprise resource planning system for a library, used to track items owned, orders made, bills paid, and patrons who have borrowed.

  5. Critical area (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_area_(aeronautics)

    ILS technology delivers two main types of information to pilots. These types include the glideslope (vertical location relative to the designed glide path) and the localizer (lateral position relative to the designed approach course). Each type of information is broadcast using a separate antenna array and each type has a specific critical area:

  6. Instrument approach - Wikipedia

    Localizer as component of an ILS (KMEZ runway 27, Mena, Arkansas) Emission patterns of the localizer and glide path signals. An instrument landing system localizer, or simply localizer (LOC, [1] or LLZ prior to 2007 [2]), is a system of horizontal guidance in the instrument landing system, which is used to guide aircraft along the axis of the runway.
