Re: [Flightgear-devel] Navaids radio propagation code almost production ready
Update: I've added new signal calculation for DME stations too. As explained detailed in the wiki, DME uses a very high frequency range, thus it is possible sometimes in reality to receive the VOR signal but not the DME signal. Screenshots provided in the wiki article. Also, TACAN reception is modelled now like the DME, since it uses basically the same frequency range. Unlike DME, I have not tested this yet, but should also work for AI/multiplayer tankers. All this disabled by default, of course. I have not updated the merge request with these features yet, waiting for the new radio to make it into 'next' since it's enough code there already. I have also added a Request for info chapter in the wiki page, asking anybody with deep knowledge of air navigation systems to contribute info on the discussion page.

Gitorious is back for me now. The code is production ready and tested, I've just added some little fixes and improvements in the new versions, which don't affect stability on my system. I think it would be best to review and merge as disabled by default, and then allow users to test and find bugs. I can't do that properly alone.

[Flightgear-devel] Navaids radio propagation code almost production ready
Hi, I have added VOR, localizer and glideslope signal calculations for the old (classic) navradios (navradio.cxx) Now an ILS navaid is basically considered as two separate stations: Localizer and glideslope, as in reality. Both these stations can have separate parameters like transmitter power, antenna type etc. Tested ok on C172p, but I've seen other aircraft that fail to set the GS flag when the GS signal is lost and LOC signal still present. Localizer on backcourse has range about half the normal one, due to the antenna patterns. This still needs testing for realism, especially since I'm not very happy with the antenna patterns I'm using, and the transmitter powers may be well off for ILS (but are ok for VOR's, according to data I have). Merge request #1568 has been updated today to reflect the changes. The antenna pattern used everywhere should go into $FGDATA/Navaids/Antennas/ but I'm really not keen on placing a merge request for only one text file, so awaiting suggestions.

GUI checkbox would be a plus. Right now it's using command line properties. About aircraft authors needing to adapt, I've had a brief look between C172P which is ok, and C337 Skymaster which does not display the off flag for glideslope when LOC signal still present. It appears to be a case of not checking one property set by the glideslope code (old code, not new one). Aircraft authors basically should not have to worry about whether the new system is on or off, and just use the glideslope flag properties like it's used in C172p's panel. Again, this new code does nothing new to the logic of the navradios, except realistically computing whether a signal is present or not.

James Emilian pointed out to me that different aircraft can have different types of receivers and antennas for ILS equipment. Of course, if it is desirable, we can make a guideline regarding aircraft developers setting some properties somewhere according to a convention we make. Then we could use these inside the navradio code, so a 747-400 has different equipment behaviour than a Cessna. Also, I'd like to remind everyone who is interested in this that glideslope signals use a different (higher) range of frequencies than VOR/LOC, thus having totally different propagation characteristics, especially in hilly/mountainous terrain.

That includes named waypoints, VORs, et cetera. 2) This is *not* a bug in the database. Complaining to Robin about it would be a step in the wrong direction. 3) Real-world pilots and real-world navigation instruments resolve the ambiguity by choosing the _nearest_ one of the possibilities. 4) This *is* a bug in the stock version of the FGFS code, in the sense that it is not smart about duplicate fixes. 5) This bug was fixed eons ago in the Sport Model.

Well I checked LEPAS and HARDLY quickly in another source, and there are several of them too. Although the real world authorities strive for uniqueness, they cannot and do not guarantee so. Short of errors or oversights on the part of Robin Peel, his (thus X-Plane's and in turn our) navaids data does reflect this accurately. Also SBGL Galeão Antonio Carlos Jombim is to be found in apt.dat.gz and looks alright to me. Hi, AFAIK the fgfs navaids files have been converted from X-plane data files, but alas, years ago and therefore they are outdated. Pietro The last update was somehow shortly before the relase of 1.0.0, and taking into account the mentioned possible errors/delays it should be up-to-date within reasonable limits, although not following the very latest AIRAC cycle. regards K.

[Flightgear-devel] Navaids FIX data with duplicates entries
Hi, I have trace same routes using waypoints and find many duplicates entries in FIX Data ( like LEPAS, HARDY ) with different coordinates, thats is correct ? One more thing, some FIX that find in X-Plane navaid data not appers in FlightGear ( FIX for SBGL airport for example ), is not the same database ? Tks, Cleber Santz. Abra sua conta no Yahoo!
