  Abstract

All over the world more than 2,000 VORs(VHF Omni-directional Ranges) including 39 in Korea are being operated for formulating air routes. But VOR reveals some difficulties in cost and time when relocating already an installed one due to its poor performance from the interference by its geometrically surrounding obstacles. DVOR(Doppler VOR) which is more popular than CVOR(Conventional VOR) has huge antennas and make it very difficult to assume a sufficient number of proper site candidates for permanent installation. This paper develops an efficient method for predicting proper site of DVOR installation by isolating transmitter from sideband antennas and counterpoise, making the transmitter easily moveable and verifying the performance of DVOR only with a transmitter and an antenna. The method was tested with a real flight measurement for DVOR performance around Gwangju Airport in Korea.
