DOPPLER MLS The UK Solution

Abstract

The need to provide precision approach guidance over wider angular coverage than is possible with the present Instrument Landing System (ILS) and the wish to avoid siting problems sometimes encountered with the current equipment has prompted work on new systems in various countries. Using existing technology, independence of site conditions can, to a large extent, be achieved by the employment of microwave frequencies.
