The effects of Solar radio bursts on frequency bands utilised by the aviation industry in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Solar radio bursts have been associated with a number of disruptions in avionic systems. The
objective of this work is to develop solar radio burst interference thresholds which account for
the technical specifications of aviation related instrumentation, instrument operating frequencies
as well as industry stipulated error tolerances. Solar radio bursts are suggested to be potentially
hazardous when exceeding these calculated thresholds. Particular attention is paid to the radio
altimeter, an important component in aviation safety. The thresholds suggested in this work for
VHF communication, GPS navigation receivers and radio altimeter frequencies are; 102 , 103 and
104 sfu respectively. Solar radio burst interference (for solar radio bursts above 104 sfu) is shown to
result in large errors (64-251 m) in the altitude estimates for the Frequency Modulated Continuous
Waves (FMCW) radio altimeter simulated in this work.
