Ernst L. Kramar Pioneer Award 1964 Ernst L. Kramar Pioneer Award 1964 The Awards Committee of the IEEE Professional Technical Group on Aero- space and Navigational Electronics has named Ernst Ludwig Kramar as recipient of its annual Pioneer Award The naming of Dr. Kramar is principally in recognition of his technical contributions to development of instrument landing systems (ILS). The award is also a tribute to his inventiveness as applied to many other areas of radio navigation, including the Sonne (Consol) system and various types of radio ranges and direction finders. The state of perfection of present ILS is due to the contributions of many persons and organizations in various countries, dating back to the 1920's. Two important landmarks are due to concepts credited largely to him. One was the development of the first ILS operating completely at VHF; known as the "Lorenz System," it was the first ILS to be installed in numbers for opera- tional service at airports. The other was his later proposal for a way to replace the early constant-intensity type of glide path with an equisignal type, straight- line glide path. Details on the life and work of Dr. Kramar are given in the accompanying biographical sketch. D. G. C.

  • A Report on Hyperbolic Navigation System
    A Report on Hyperbolic Navigation System Quiambao, John Vincent Roque, Rommel Sagad, Arjel San Pablo, Aldrin Seth Santos, Johan Christian INTRODUCTION Hyperbolic navigation system A navigation system that produces hyperbolic lines of position (LOPs) through the measurement of the difference in times of reception (or phase difference) of radio signals from two or more synchronized transmitters at fixed points. Such systems require the use of a receiver which measures the time difference (or phase difference) between arriving radio signals. Assuming the velocity of signal propagation is relatively constant across a given coverage area, the difference in the times of arrival (or phase) is constant on a hyperbola having the two transmitting stations as foci. Therefore, the receiver measuring time or phase difference between arriving signals must be located somewhere along the hyperbolic line of position corresponding to that time or phase difference. If a third transmitting station is available, the receiver can measure a second time or phase difference and obtain another hyperbolic line of position. The intersection of the lines of position provides a two-dimensional navigational fix .User receivers typically convert this navigational fix to latitude and longitude for operator convenience. HISTORY The theory behind the operation of hyperbolic navigation systems was known in the late 1930’s, but it took the urgency of World War II to speed development of the system into practical use. By early 1942, the British had an operation hyperbolic system in use designed to aid in long range bomber navigation. This system, named Gee, operated on frequencies between 30 MHz and 80 MHz and employed “master” and “slave transmitters” spaced approximately 100 miles apart.

On board, the navigator is primarily occupied with two objects—or possibly three. The first is a black box with knobs and an oscilloscope display, as in figure 1. The navigator spends most of his time fiddling with these knobs trying to make two wavy signals align on the screen; doing this results in two numbers—something like 49.1 and 4.8. At least one of these numbers is constantly changing and the navigator’s box requires ongoing attention. The second object is a simple map known as a lattice chart that shows a dense network of colored hyberbolas, as in figure 2. Each of these curves corresponds to one of the numbers from the machine; finding the intersection of the lines labeled 49.1 and 4.8 puts the bomber just north of Leeds. From here, it will head east over the North Sea to join in formation with more than nine hundred other aircraft, all carry- ing similar equipment, before turning south for yet another bombing raid on German civilians—this time, in the suburbs of Cologne.

  • Abstract Some Historical and Technical Aspects of Radio Navigation, In
    1 Abstract Some historical and technical aspects of radio navigation, in Germany, over the period 1907 to 1945 Radio navigation, in the broad sense, has become of the utmost importance since the end of the 1930s. Warfare, without navigation by radio signals is, today, nearly unthinkable. It is therefore useful to look back in history to get some understanding as to how, why and when, some aspects of this technology came into being. Navigation by radio as an aid has been practised in Germany since 1907. Scheller invented the complimentary dot - dash guiding path, which can be seen as a 'landmark' for several decades of navigational aids. Some aspects of the Lorenz civil 'Blind - Approach' apparatus and several technical details of the relentless Beams over Britain will also be discussed as will the principles behind Sonne (or Consol) used for long distance navigation and some other related subjects. Arthur O. Bauer Diemen, 26 December 2004 The Netherlands Stgcdv&[email protected] Introduction Already in the early days of the German wireless industry, it was Telefunken (fifty-fifty shared (owned) by AEG and Siemens & Halske) and C. Lorenz (the latter hereafter to be called Lorenz), who dominated Germany's market. The latter company was owned, since May 1930, by the American ITT company and, after WW II this company was also known as: - Standard Elektrik Lorenz (SEL). Around 1990 it was finally sold to the French Alcatel company. From the beginning of the Wireless industry, the German government was keen to keep both major companies in business, to avoid the possibility of the internal market becoming one company's monopoly.

  • Possibilities of Radio Direction-Finding with Decametric Waves As a Means of Radio Navigation
    POSSIBILITIES OF RADIO DIRECTION-FINDING WITH DECAMETRIC WAVES AS A MEANS OF RADIO NAVIGATION by J. LochARD Translated extract from « Bulletin de l’Associaton Technique Maritime et Aéro­ nautique », Paris, 1956 Session, by kind permission of the « Association Technique Maritime et Aéronautique » 1. Elementary Comparison of Radio Navigational Systems. Prior to the last war, practically the only long-distance radio navigational aid consisted of radio direction-finding by means of hectometric waves. In spite of the high degree of refinement reached by this system, it has now been almost completely abandoned for the reasons explained by M. G R A S in his lecture on radio direction-finding by decametric waves. The hectometric direction-finders were installed on airfields or in the immediate vicinity; by means of an aerial ranging capacity up to several hundred metres, the finder and receiver were operated directly by the air-security operator responsible for ensuring communication with aircraft heading for the airport, and this operator supplied the correct heading to the plane. During the war, various other long-range navigational aids were studied - and used for military purposes : LO R A N in the United States and SO N N E in Germany. When the principles of these new aids were made public, the tendency was to consider them as a definite solution of the problem of long-range radio navigation, and their accuracy and convenience were reported as being far above anything that had been obtained previously by radio direction-finding. It had been forgotten, as it often still is, that all radio navigational methods are based on the propagational properties of electromagnetic waves, and that their accuracy and precision are limited by the same physical phenomena, regardless of the principle and type of equipment used, provided the latter is well enough built to exclude an instrumental error of excessive size.
