During last six weeks you have studied several Radio Navigation Aids. The NDB/ADF or the VOR gives direction from a fixed location on the map. With two VOR or ADFs we can perform THETA-THETA position fix. The DME provides the Slant Range from the ground DME station. If the VOR/DME are co- located then we can get ROH-THETA position fix. Also, we studied the Area Navigation (RNAV) system, which comprises of a navigation computer, a software code and utilizes the outputs of Navigation Aids to plan new routes or perform Navigation. Using this basic information of the VOR (direction) and the DME (slant range), design your own RNAV system by calculating or estimating the following: (you may add more features if appropriate) (a) Position fix (Theta-theta and Roh-theta) (b) Ground Distance (Horizontal Range) (c) Measuring Altitude with DME (once overhead) (d) Estimating speed of the aircraft based on DME readings (e) A GUI to enter data and to show results (f) Basic cockpit instruments to show your results Write a detail report on your designed system. To include following but not limited to: (a) explanation of your design, (b) functional block diagram of your system, (c) Show your equations for calculating or estimating above outputs (d) attach code and the GUI snapshots (e) make a pilots hand book to guide him/her how to use your designed system and the precautions in using this system (f) Demo run of your RNAV program on PC/Laptop.
