Abstract: The altimeter is an effective instrument for remote sensing of the sea surface. Existing theoretical models of the waveform of the reflected impulse are used in the retracking algorithms for ...

Although the crew informed the air traffic controller that they had passed the NDB at 1,100m, the altimeter’s reference to sea level rather than airfield elevation meant the An-24 was actually flying ...

Maintaining accurate altitude is crucial for flight safety, as demonstrated by a fatal midair collision potentially caused by altimeter malfunction. Pilots should regularly check and verify their ...

Over three days of sometimes contentious hearings this week, the National Transportation Safety Board interrogated Federal Aviation Administration and Army officials about a list of things that went ...

National Transportation Safety Board Chairwoman Jennifer Homendy, on monitor left, swears-in the witnesses from left: Dan Cooper, Sikorsky Aircraft, Lance Gant, Federal Aviation Administration, U.S.

Broken Altimeter, Ignored Warnings: Hearings Reveal What Went Wrong in DC Crash That Killed 67 Over three days of sometimes contentious hearings this week, the National Transportation Safety Board ...

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) began a three-day hearing in Washington, D.C., to investigate the midair collision between a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter and a commercial regional ...

Abstract: With the development of altimeters’ retracking algorithms, the signal-to-noise ratio of altimeter data in coastal regions has been improved significantly ...

Arduino has shrunk the UNO R4 with the Arduino Nano R4 board equipped with the same 48 MHz Renesas RA4M1 32-bit Arm Cortex-M4F microcontroller, but offered in a much more compact form factor. It’s ...

For home HVAC systems, heat pumps seem to be the way of the future. When compared to electric heating they can be three to four times more efficient, and they don’t directly burn fossil fuels. They ...

Paradigm Parachute and Defense has launched a next-generation altimeter, a wrist-mounted smart display built for the needs of today’s tactical parachutist. Designed for military-grade performance and ...
