Principle of workingPrinciple of working
• GPS Satellites send signals containing satellites position and time.
• GPS RX receive signals from 4 satellites at any time, measuring the time difference from satellite to the receiver
• Distance to satellite = c x time difference• Knowing the distances of 4 satellites,
position of RX in Long and Lat computed by a process of Triangulation

In DetailIn Detail
1. MEO satellites emit high-frequency radio signals and have atomic clocks set to Greenwich time called ZULU time
2. Received by GPS receiver at the Aircraft, measuring nearest 2 satellites called Acuisition.
3. These signals contain data about exact orbits of the satellites and the time of atomic clocks on the satellites
4. Time taken by the nearest 2 satellites and the aircraft creates a precise triangle informing the pilot his latitude and longitude to within one meter
5. Distance between satellite and RX is computed by Acquisition from the time difference between satellite and received signal d= (c/t) c= 300,000 km/sec

What is meant by Radar What is meant by Radar StabilizationStabilization
Using an aircraft's vertical gyro (if equipped) to maintain the selected radar antenna beam relative to the horizon-called Radar Stabilization
In a turn, the radar will maintain the selected tilt angle instead of changing in relation to turn

6. Traffic Collision Avoidance 6. Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems-TCASSystems-TCAS
• A System to reduce mid-air collisions between aircraft, monitoring the Air Space around an Aircraft with a Transponder, independent of ATC
• Working with a Transponder either at S or C Band
• TCAS-equipped aircraft "interrogating with all other aircraft in a determined range about their position thru 1.030 GHz and all other craft replying at 1.090 GHz

Traffic Collision Avoidance Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems-TCASSystems-TCAS
• To supplement air traffic control, most large transport aircraft and many smaller ones use a TCAS (Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System), which can detect the location of nearby aircraft, and provide instructions for avoiding a midair collision.
• To help avoid collision with terrain, (CFIT) aircraft use systems such as ground-proximity warning systems (GPWS), radar altimeter being the key element in GPWS
