impact of wind on navigation DONE BY : ALREEM HAMAD , MOZA ALAHBABI GRADE : 11.54 MS.LAYALI
Navigation • is the process of monitoring and controlling the movement of a craft or vehicle from one place to another. • It also the :term of art used for the specialized knowledge used by navigators to perform navigation tasks. All navigational techniques involve locating the navigator's position compared to known locations or patterns.
POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF WIND TURBINES ON NAVIGATIONAL SYSTEMS • The Working Group for Wind Energy, Defence and Civil Aviation Interests has to date focused on the impact of wind turbines on radar. However, at the meeting held on 12 Sep 01, it was suggested that consideration be given to assessing the impact on aeronautical navigation aids.
POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF WIND TURBINES ON NAVIGATIONAL SYSTEMS • Although significant work has been undertaken to establish the effects of wind turbines on radar, no work has been specifically commissioned in respect of the potential effects on aeronautical navigation aids. However, due to uncertainty concerning the issues, it was agreed that the CAA would develop a paper to identify areas where additional work may be needed to determine both the effects and the restrictions necessary to achieve an acceptable level of safeguarding.
POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF WIND TURBINES ON NAVIGATIONAL SYSTEMS • The aim of this paper is to review those aeronautical navigation systems that may be degraded by the effects of wind turbines but require further investigation of the effects to determine appropriate protection. This paper does not attempt to be a technical examination but is merely an assessment of the situation against which further technical work can be planned
POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF WIND TURBINES ON NAVIGATIONAL SYSTEMS • It is recognized that wind turbines do not transmit or radiate other than the generation of background noise similar to any non-transmitting electrical device. However, the physical characteristics of a wind farm and its operation are known to have an effect on the performance of primary radar. In respect of navigational aids, the impact on performance is potentially less obvious but could be of a similar nature. In essence, the siting of wind turbines in close proximity to a navigation aid may result in an effect on the coverage of the radiated signals.
