• EACH AIRPORT HAS ITS DESIGNATED FREQUENCY .
• FOR EXAMPLE-SAFDURJUNG AIRPORT OPERATES AT FREQUENCY 122.3 MHZ .
NAVIGATION (NAV-AIDS)
NAVIGATIONAL AIDS
Navigation is the 'ART' of determining the position of an aircraft over earth's surface and guiding its progress from one place to another.
To accomplish this ART, some sort of 'aids' are required by the PILOTS.
In the twentieth century, electronics also entered in the Aviation field. Direction finders and other navigational aids enabled the navigators to obtain 'Fixes' using electronic aids only. Hence such aids became more and more popular and came into extensive use.
Navigational Aids used in AAI

INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM
The Instrument Landing System (ILS) provides a means for safe landing of aircraft at airports under conditions of low ceilings and limited visibility.
The use of the system materially reduces interruptions of service at airports resulting from bad weather by allowing operations to continue at lower weather minimums.
The ILS also increases the traffic handling capacity of the airport under all weather conditions.
INSTRUMENT LANDING SYSTEM
The function of an ILS is to provide the PILOT or AUTOPILOT of a landing aircraft with the guidance to and along the surface of the runway.
This guidance must be of very high integrity to ensure that each landing has a very high probability of success.
The basic philosophy of ILS is that ground installations, located in the vicinity of the runway, transmit coded signals in such a manner that pilot is given information indicating position of the aircraft with respect to correct approach path.
DISTANCE MEASURING INSTRUMENT(D.M.E)
Aircraft use DME to determine their distance from a land-based transponder
NDB:NON DIRECTIONAL BEACON
NDB GIVES THE RELATIVE BEARING.
NDB GIVES THE CLOCKWISE ANGLE BETWEEN THE NOSE OF AN AIRCRAFT AND THE NDB.
IF I.L.S IS NOT WORKING THEN NDB CAN DO THE TASK.

SURVEILLANCE
SURVEILLANCE
The act of watching or monitoring the behavior activities, or other changing information.
Surveillance may be applied to observation from a distance by means of electronic equipment.
SURVEILLANCE
RADAR SECURITY EQUIPMENTS
RADAR
◙ Radars are employed throughout the world for the purpose of safely controlling air traffic en-route and in the vicinity of airports.
◙ Aircraft as well as vehicular traffic at large airports are monitored by means of high-resolution radar.
◙ Radar has also been used to guide aircraft to a safe landing in bad weather.
SECURITY EQUIPMENT
HAND HELD METAL DETECTOR.
DOOR FRAME METAL DETECTOR.
X-RAY BAGGAGE INSPECTION SYSTEM.
EXPLOSIVE TRACE DETECTOR.
HAND HELD METAL DETECTOR
It is used to find the particular part of the body at which any metal or other related particle is there.
It operates with chargeable battery system.
DOOR FRAME METAL DETECTOR.
Every passengers has to go through this frame when any metal particle is possessed by passengers.
It gives indication with both visual and audio aid.
X-RAY BAGGAGE INSPECTION SYSTEM
This system has a single X-ray source sending out X-rays, typically in the range of 140 to 160 kilovolt peak (KVP). KVP refers to the amount of penetration an X-ray makes. The higher the KVP, the further the X-ray penetrates.
After the X-rays pass through the item, they are picked up by a detector. This detector then passes the X-rays on to a filter, which blocks out the lower-energy X-rays.
The remaining high-energy X-rays hit a second detector. A computer circuit compares the pick-ups of the two detectors to better represent low-energy objects, such as most organic materials.
