ILS – Instrument Landing System
Instrument landing systems used in modern aircraft including:
the airborne receiving equipment the instruments pilots use to navigate along
the required flight path the ground based radio transmitting
equipment.

ILS – Instrument Landing System
ILS enables a suitably equipped aeroplane to make a precision approach to a particular runway (non-visual)
The three main elements of ILS are:– The localizer– The glideslope– Marker beacons

Operation Principles
![Page 6: 02 ILS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5695d1fb1a28ab9b0298ac9e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Ground equipment
a localiser (LOC) transmitter and antenna located at the far end of the runway
a glideslope (GS) transmitter and antenna located near the runway threshold
an outer marker antenna located approximately 8 kilometres from the runway threshold
a middle marker antenna located approximately 1 kilometre from the runway threshold
an inner marker beacon antenna located approximately 150 metres from the runway threshold.

ILS ground antennas

Glideslope
Glideslope channels are in the UHF band specifically between 328.6Mhz & 335.4 MHz
The glideslope aerial is usually situated about 300 metres in from the runway threshold.
Aerial is situated some 100 to 200 metres to the side of the runway.
![Page 9: 02 ILS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5695d1fb1a28ab9b0298ac9e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Glideslope Signals
A large 90 Hz lobe overlaps a 150 Hz lobe in the vertical plane.
Above correct glide path the 90 Hz modulation predominates while on the correct glide path the d.d.m is zero, both tone giving 40 percent modulation.
A particular glideslope transmission frequency is always paired with the same localizer frequency.

Glideslope propagation
The glideslope signal is radiated to produce two intersecting lobes, one above the other. The upper lobe is modulated by a 90 Hz signal, the lower lobe by a 150 Hz signal
![Page 11: 02 ILS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5695d1fb1a28ab9b0298ac9e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Localizer Localizer: The localizer provides directional
guidance along the extended centre line of the landing runway.
Localizer transmits on frequency in the VHF band between 108.10 MHz & 111.95 MHz.
Its transmitting aerial (may be 20m wide and 3 m high) is positioned at the far end of the runway (stopping end), and typically 300 m beyond the end.
![Page 12: 02 ILS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5695d1fb1a28ab9b0298ac9e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Localizer Signals
Localizer transmits two overlapping lobes of RF energy on the localizer’s carrier frequency as it did for the vertical signal.
Left hand side of approach is modulated at 90 Hz (yellow sector)
Right hand side of the approach path is modulated at 150 Hz (blue sector)
Signal transmitted along the approach path is sometimes called the localizer front beam.

Marker Beacons
ILS marker beacons transmit a vertical elliptical pattern, (fan-shaped).
Outer markers: located 8 Klm from the runway threshold-aural series of low pitched(400 Hz) dashes transmitted at 2 per sec -a flashing blue light
![Page 16: 02 ILS](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062520/5695d1fb1a28ab9b0298ac9e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Marker Beacons
Middle Markers:– located approximately 1 Klm (0.6 nm) from the
runway threshold.
– Aural series of medium-pitched(1.3 KHz) dots and dashes transmitted six per sec.
Inner Markers:– Close to threshold 150metres
– indicated by high-pitched (3KHz) dots six per sec
– flashing white light.

ILS Categories
Cat 1 - DH - 200ft Cat 2 - DH - 100ft Cat 3 - DH - 0 ft.
– all of which are well below the decision heights allowed for an IMC rated pilot carrying out an ILS approach (an absolute minimum of 500ft aal, or higher)
– DH decision height
