A monitor located about 100 m from the ILS localizer determines whether the DDM alarm threshold was exceeded due to an equipment error or to an error caused by an overflying aircraft. To accomplish this, either the maximum of the frequency spectrum of the variation with time of the differentiated DDM signal is located, or the frequency spectrum of the variation with time of the DDM signal or of the differentiated DDM signal is compared with one or a plurality of spectra typical of equipment errors or of errors caused by overflying aircraft.

In navigation transmitters it is important that the phase difference between the carrier waves of a carrier signal and the carrier waves of sideband signals be held at a constant value. To accomplish this, the carrier waves are maintained constant relative to a reference signal in a known manner. A phase meter measures the phase difference between the carrier waves of the sideband signals and the reference signal and between the carrier waves of the carrier signal and the reference signal. The measure values are used to determine the phase difference between the carrier signal and sideband signals which are compared with a desired value. Depending on the deviation from the desired value, a controllable phase shifter controls the phase of the carrier waves of the sideband signals. Since the measurements are made on a time-division multiplex basis, little circuitry is required. Any measuring errors do not affect the formation of the desired phase difference.

A process for transmitting information between moving bodies, in particular vehicles (3, 4, 5, 8, 8′), wherein each of the moving bodies has a communication device (6) for receiving and sending radio messages (7). In order to be able to transmit information very rapidly to a large number of moving bodies, a radio message (7) is generated, which contains the information and limit parameters, which signalize an end of the information transmission, at least one of the moving bodies receives the radio message (7) and sends it to every other moving body that comes within range of the radio message (7), and for the cascade-like dissemination of the information, every other moving body that has received the radio message (7), sends it to every other moving body that comes within range of the radio message (7).

A system for monitoring the level of an RF signal having such a small amplitude that it must be amplified before it can be monitored. To determine the deviation of the amplifier gain from the desired value, an additional RF signal of relatively high amplitude is used and is attenuated by a predetermined amount before being applied to the amplifier. The levels of the attenuated and subsequently amplified RF signal are compared with the level of the unchanged signal. From the deviation of this ratio, the gain variation is determined.Alternatively, in lieu of gain control of the amplifier the gain variation may be mathematically offset in the digital instrumentation provided.The monitoring system is suitable for use in the so-called instrument-landing system (ILS) and in VOR and DVOR en-route navigation systems.
