GLIDBANEVARNINGSINSTUMENT FOR FLYGFARKOST

摘要

In a system where the aircraft's distance below a radio glide slope is compared with the aircraft's altitude above ground to generate either an advisory voice warning or a command voice warning depending upon the aircraft's altitude and distance below the radial glide slope beam, the repetition rate of the advisory voice warning is varied as both a function of distance below the radio glide slope beam and of altitude in order to generate advisory warnings at a rate reflecting increasing danger to the aircraft. This is accomplished by integrating the glide slope deviation signal over time and comparing it with a radio altitude signal so as to generate a signal for triggering the advisory warning as a function of the glide slope deviation and the radio altitude thereby generating the advisory warnings as a function of decreasing radio altitude and increasing deviation from the glide slope.
