OBJECTIVE of this Presentation: To provide information regarding the following VOR ground station Application of VOR. Air Navigational Equipment Block Diagrams of VOR Ground Equipment ond VOR Aitbome Receiver "VOR equipment specification OBJECTIVE of this Presentation: Without references, you will be able to: > Identify the components of VOR Sysiem, Explain how the bearing information is produced, and Enumerate what are the information that the VOR can provide. a] WHAT IS VoR?/_ => + VOR or VHF Omnirange Radio is a navigational aid equipment designed to provide bearing information to aircraftWHAT IS BEARING? + Bearing refers to the direction from a certain place towards another. In VOR application, this rofers to the bearing from an airplane to a VOR station. The VOR System. ALL DIRECTIONS ASSOCIATED WITH A VOR STATION ARE RELATED 70 MAGNETIC NORTH. ‘These aco shown in the Figures below How is the bearing information produced by the VOR ? This is done by radiating two signals from antenna and the variable or sideband antennas surrounding the central antenna.CENTRAL OR REFERENCE ANTENNA VARIABLE OR SIDEBAND.
