What is Overview of Distance Measurement Equipment about?
Distance Measurement Equipment (DME) is a standardized radio aid for navigation that allows aircraft to measure their distance from a ground station using secondary radar principles. It consists of an interrogator on the aircraft and a transponder on the ground, operating on specific frequency bands. DME provides accurate distance measurements, but is limited by line-of-sight communication and can experience errors as aircraft approach the ground station.
