Class - Azimuth
<< feature >> Logical View.AIXM.AIXM Features.Navaids Points.Navaids
<<feature>> A component of an MLS consisting of an SHF transmitter and associated equipment, radiating signals in a volume of airspace served by the MLS, thereby furnishing azimuth indications to aircraft approaching the runway or back azimuth indications to aircraft departing from the runway or performing a missed approach procedure.
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 | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| type | CodeMLSAzimuthType | A code indicating if it is 'normal' or 'back' azimuth equipment. | ||
| trueBearing | ValBearingType | The measured angle between the azimuth beam and True North at the azimuth antenna. | ||
| trueBearingAccuracy | ValAngleType | Accuracy of the measured angle between the azimuth beam and True North at the azimuth antenna | ||
| magneticBearing | ValBearingType | The measured angle between the direction of the azimuth beam and Magnetic North at the azimuth antenna. | ||
| angleProportionalLeft | ValAngleType | The value of the angle within which the azimuth indication is proportional to the deviation from the azimuth zero indication direction, and left of this direction from the azimuth antenna. | ||
| angleProportionalRight | ValAngleType | The value of the angle within which the azimuth indication is proportional to the deviation from the azimuth zero indication direction, and right of this direction from the azimuth antenna. | ||
| angleCoverLeft | ValAngleType | The value of the angle from the zero indication direction within which the azimuth indication is usable, and left of this direction from the azimuth antenna. | ||
| angleCoverRight | ValAngleType | The value of the angle from the zero indication direction within which the azimuth indication is usable, and right of this direction from the azimuth antenna. | ||
| channel | CodeMLSChannelType | A code indicating the channel on which the Microwave Landing System is operating. | ||
| 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 |
