• Abstract:
  The Transportation Systems Center (TSC) ILS Localizer Performance Prediction Model was used to predict the derogation to an Alford 1B Localizer caused by vehicular traffic traveling on a roadway to be located in front of the localizer. Several different types of car distributions were modeled and found to produce negligible additional derogation to the Alford B Localizer performance operating for Runway 10 at the New Orleans airport. However, because of the nature of the scattering causing the derogation and the capabilities of the TSC model (See text), it is suggested that additional validation of the TSC results be obtained.
