Possible effects of citizens band radio transmissions on service airborne radio navaids
Abstract
The potential detrimental effects of interference from CB equipment not within UK specification MPT 1320 on instrument landing systems (ILS) and other navigation aid systems is discussed. The frequent use of illegal amplitude modulation and power increases in the UK is commented on. The probability of error in ILS due to legal or illegal CB interference is analyzed. The risk of using illegal CB in vulnerable areas such as in proximity of an ILS equipped runway is demonstrated.
