Class - MarkerBeacon

<< feature >> AIXM_v.5.1.1.AIXM.AIXM Features.Navaids Points.Navaids
<<feature>> A marker beacon serving to identify a particular location in space by means of a 75MHz transmitter which transmits a directional signal to be received by aircraft flying overhead.

Inheritance

This is a specialization of the NavaidEquipment class and it inherits all attributes and associations of that class.

List of attributes

Name Data Type Definition  
class CodeMarkerBeaconSignalType A code indicating the class of the radio marker. For example, fan marker, low-powered fan marker, Z marker.  
frequency ValFrequencyType The value of the radio emission frequency.  
axisBearing ValBearingType The true bearing of the minor axis of the marker beacon. (source: ARINC 424 Specification)  
auralMorseCode CodeAuralMorseType The Morse code transmitted by the beacon.  
designator CodeNavaidDesignatorType The identifying code given to the navaid. Inherited from NavaidEquipment
name TextNameType The long name given to the navaid equipment. Inherited from NavaidEquipment
emissionClass CodeRadioEmissionType A code indicating the type of emission, as defined at the 1979 ITU World Administrative Radio Conference. Inherited from NavaidEquipment
mobile CodeYesNoType Indicates if the navaid equipment is mobile. Inherited from NavaidEquipment
magneticVariation ValMagneticVariationType The measured angle between Magnetic North and True North at the VOR and at the time reported in dateMagneticVariation. By convention, the measure is expressed as a positive number if Magnetic North is to the east of True North and negative if Magnetic North is to the west of True North. Therefore, magnetic bearing + magnetic variation = true bearing. The following rule of thumb applies: ""variation east-magnetic least, variation west-magnetic best"". Inherited from NavaidEquipment
magneticVariationAccuracy ValAngleType The accuracy of the measured angle between Magnetic North and True North at the VOR and at the time reported in dateMagneticVariation Inherited from NavaidEquipment
dateMagneticVariation DateYearType The year the magnetic variation was measured. Inherited from NavaidEquipment
flightChecked CodeYesNoType Indicates if the navaid equipment has been flight checked. Inherited from NavaidEquipment
