Book Loran C and Omega

Download or read book Loran C and Omega written by Owen Wilkes and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1987 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically-oriented studies of the arms race tend to focus on major weapons and ignore the associated subsystems. In this book, the authors consider one subsystem--the navigation instruments and land-based transmitters--of the submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) system. Paying particular attention to the Loran-C and Omega navigational units, the authors are able to draw conclusions on the accuracy of submarine-launched missiles and the reliability of America's sea-based nuclear deterrent.

Book Loran C Performance Assurance Assessment Program

Download or read book Loran C Performance Assurance Assessment Program written by National Aeronautics and Space Adm Nasa and published by . This book was released on 2018-10-20 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has accepted the Loran-C navigation system as a supplemental navigation aid for enroute use. Extension of Loran-C utilization to instrument approaches requires establishment of a process by which the current level of performance of the system is always known by the pilot. This system 'integrity' translates into confidence that, if the system is made available to the pilot, the guidance will be correct. Early in the consideration of Loran-C for instrument approaches, the Loran-C Planning Work-Group (LPW) was formed with membership from the FAA, the US Coast Guard, various state governments, aviation users, equipment manufacturers and technical experts. The group was hosted and co-chaired by the National Association of State Aviation Officials (NASAO). This forum was ideal for identification of system integrity issues and for finding the correct process for their resolution. Additionally, the Wild Goose Association (WGA), which is the international Loran-C technical and user forum, regularly brings together members of the FAA, Coast Guard, and the scientific community. Papers and discussions from WGA meetings have been helpful. Given here is a collection of the issues in which Ohio University became involved. Issues definition and resolution are included along with the recommendations in those areas where resolution is not yet complete. Lilley, Robert W. and Brooks, N. Kent Unspecified Center NAG1-816...
