Diagram of an instrument landing system (ILS) approach. In aviation, the instrument landing system ( ILS) is a precision radio navigation system that provides short-range guidance to aircraft to allow them to approach a runway at night or in bad weather. In its original form, it allows an aircraft to approach until it is 200 feet (61 m) over ...
In the United States Armed Forces, the joint precision approach and landing system ( JPALS) is an all-weather system for precision guidance of landing aircraft. It is based on real-time differential correction of the Global Positioning System (GPS) signal, augmented with a local area correction message, and transmitted to the user via secure means.
Fresnel lens optical landing system (FLOLS) Later systems kept the same basic function of the mirror landing aid, but upgraded components and functionality. The concave mirror, source light combination was replaced with a series of fresnel lenses. The Mk 6 Mod 3 FLOLS was tested in 1970 and had not changed much, except for when ship's heave was ...
Crew / cargo variants. The Dynetics Autonomous Logistics Platform for All-Moon Cargo Access ( ALPACA )—also known as Dynetics HLS [1] — (ILV) is a human spaceflight lunar lander design concept proposed in 2020/21 for the NASA Human Landing System (HLS) component of the Artemis program. Dynetics was the lead contractor for the ALPACA lander ...
Microwave landing system. The microwave landing system ( MLS) is an all-weather, precision radio guidance system intended to be installed at large airports to assist aircraft in landing, including 'blind landings'. MLS enables an approaching aircraft to determine when it is aligned with the destination runway and on the correct glidepath for a ...
