Abstract

A new application of the Omega navigation system is described in which a ground station is enabled to display multiple vehicle locations. Pulses from the vehicles are triggered by Omega signals and the times of arrival of the pulses at the ground station are processed to provide a ‘radar-like’ display of each vehicle's range and bearing.

This paper was presented at the eleventh Annual Meeting of the International Omega Association held in Quebec in August 1986.
