Assessing the Effects of the Construction of a Logistics Center on the Operation of DME System

Abstract

The paper presents one of the possible approaches to assessing the effects of the construction of a logistics center in a selected location on the operational parameters of Distance Measuring Equipment (DME). When examining the impact of the logistics center on the operation of DME, at least two major negative factors were found. These factors include loss of signal due to shadowing and signal degradation due to multipath propagation.
