  • Instrument Landing System and Its Requirement in India
    JOURNAL OF CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 14, 2020 INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM AND ITS REQUIREMENT IN INDIA Shivendra Shrivastava1, Rahul Kumar Verma2, Gp Capt M Shrivastava3 1,2Amity University, Noida 3Air Force [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract: The ILS is a navigational aid invented in the forties it helps aircrafts in landing. The pilots still consider the ILS as one of the most reliable means of guidance it continues to be used around the world. This paper examines what is an ILS its categories, components and the relevance of ILS in India. Since all Indian airports do not have ILS it causes disruption of flights, passenger discomfort and loss of business. The ILS has been compared with other advance systems of navigation in the market. Considering seamless movement of flights a necessity for business and development of India, the paper proposes ILS/GAGAN installation at all Indian airports. Key words - ILS, Localizer, Glide slope, Yagi antenna. BACKGROUND The development of an instrument landing system (ILS) began during World War I in the twenties but it was not until the thirties that some substantial research was carried out. The airports used to fire flares to guide the commercial airliners. There was a lot of research work carried out by USA and UK from 1930 to 1947 in developing a system in order to land aircrafts safely in low visibility conditions. This was a direct outcome of World War 2 since during the war the USAF bombers could not carry out bombing over Europe in foggy weather conditions.

IES 7.3.5 Suggested Books 7.3.6 Websites 7.3.7 Experts’ Details 7.3.8 Journals 7.3.9 Findings and Developments 7.3.10 Session Plan 7.3.11 Question Bank i. JNTU ii. GATE iii. IES 7.3.1 OBJECTIVES AND RELEVANCE Through this subject, Students can understand the physical concept of Radiation and they can relate real- world situations. They can learn about various types of antennas, its working principle and design. Since Hertz and Marconi, antennas have become increasingly important to our society until now they are indispensable. They are everywhere: at our homes and workplaces, on our cars and aircrafts. While our ships, satellites and spacecrafts bristle with them, even as pedestrians we carry them. “With mankind’s activities expanding into space, the need for antennas will grow to an unprecedented degree. Antennas will provide the vital links to and from everything out there. 7.3.2 SCOPE It gives about the basic concepts of the antenna parameters and also about the various antenna theorems in detail. Antennas are the basic components of any electric systems and are connecting links between the transmeter and free space and the receiver. Antenna place a vital role in finding the characteristics of the system in which antennas are employed. It gives in detail about the various types of microwave, VHF, and UHF antennas, their characteristics and the various applications.

  • Design of Cellular and GNSS Antenna for Iot Edge Device
    Master Thesis Master's Programme in Electronics Design, 60 credits Design of Cellular and GNSS Antenna for IoT Edge Device in collaboration with HMS Industrial Networks AB Electronics Engineering,15 credits Halmstad 2019-04-10 Ioannis Broumas HALMSTAD UNIVERSITY 60 Credits Author Ioannis Broumas Supervisor Johan Malm Examiner Pererik Andreasson School of Information Technology Halmstad University PO Box 823, SE-301 18 HALMSTAD Sweden 2 Abstract Antennas are one of the most sensitive elements in any wireless communication equipment. Designing small-profile, multiband and wideband internal antennas with a simple structure has become a necessary challenge. In this thesis, two planar antennas are designed, simulated and implemented on an effort to cover the LTE-M1 and NB-IoT radio frequencies. The cellular antenna is designed to receive and transmit data over the eight-band LTE700/GSM/UMTS, and the GNSS antenna is designed to receive signal from the global positioning system and global navigation systems, GPS (USA) and GLONASS. The antennas are suitable for direct print on the system circuit board of a device. Related theory and research work are discussed and referenced, providing a strong configuration for future use. Recommendations and suggestions on future work are also discussed. The proposed antenna system is more than promising and with further adjustments and refinement can lead to a fully working solution. 3 Στον αδελφό μου Μάκη 4 Contents 1.

  • Antenna Basics 9
    M09_RAO3333_1_SE_CHO9.QXD 4/9/08 2:40 PM Page 339 CHAPTER Antenna Basics 9 In the preceding chapters, we studied the principles of propagation and transmission of electromagnetic waves. The remaining important topic pertinent to electromagnetic wave phenomena is radiation of electromagnetic waves. We have, in fact, touched on the principle of radiation of electromagnetic waves in Chapter 4 when we derived the electromagnetic field due to the infinite plane sheet of sinusoidally time-varying, spa- tially uniform current density. We learned that the current sheet gives rise to uniform plane waves radiating away from the sheet to either side of it. We pointed out at that time that the infinite plane current sheet is, however, an idealized, hypothetical source. With the experience gained thus far in our study of the elements of engineering elec- tromagnetics, we are now in a position to learn the principles of radiation from physi- cal antennas, which is our goal in this chapter. We shall begin the chapter with the derivation of the electromagnetic field due to an elemental wire antenna, known as the Hertzian dipole. After studying the radia- tion characteristics of the Hertzian dipole, we shall consider the example of a half- wave dipole to illustrate the use of superposition to represent an arbitrary wire antenna as a series of Hertzian dipoles in order to determine its radiation fields. We shall also discuss the principles of arrays of physical antennas and the concept of image antennas to take into account ground effects. Finally, we shall briefly consider the receiving properties of antennas and learn of their reciprocity with the radiating properties.
