1. Short Note TLS (Transponder Landing System). {2} The TLS facility interrogates the transponder of the aircraft. After
receiving a response, it determines the aircraft's location using two sets of direction finding antenna arrays: one for horizontal
position, the other for vertical. It then calculates the signal that the aircraft would "see" if they were located at that location
and approaching a conventional ILS system, and then broadcasts that signal to the aircraft. The aircraft's ILS receivers
receive a signal that is indistinguishable from a normal ILS signal, and displays this information on their glide slope and
localizer displays. Certain TLS configurations can also produce marker beacon like audio to indicate distance at appropriate
times during the approach. All the aircraft has to do is tune in the TLS system as if it were an ILS, and tune its transponder to
a predetermined channel. A TLS can be installed in areas where a conventional ILS would not fit or would not function
properly, like, for example, an airport that doesn't have a proper reflecting surface for an ILS glide slope because of uneven
terrain like steep hills or mountains, or airports that have large buildings like hangars or parking garages that create
disruptive reflections that would prevent an ILS localizer from being used. TLS does not even have to be installed at a
particular location relative to the runway, but can "offset" its signals from wherever it is installed to appear as if it were at the
end of the runway. This makes it much less expensive to install while still providing ILS-class blind-landing approaches. As
of 2001, TLS was certified by the FAA for Category I ILS usage.

3. AHRS? Attitude and Heading Reference Systems or better known as Attitude Heading Reference System
(AHRS) are 3-axis sensors that provide heading, attitude and yaw information for aircraft. AHRS are designed to replace
traditional mechanical gyroscopic flight instruments and provide superior reliability and accuracy.

AHRS consist of either solid-state or MEMS gyroscopes, accelerometers and magnetometers on all three axes. Some AHRS
use GPS receivers to improve long-term stability of the gyroscopes. A Kalman filter is typically used to compute the solution
from these multiple sources. AHRS differ from traditional inertial navigation systems by using magnetometer and/or GPS
data to correct the raw gyroscopic data.

AHRS have proven themselves to be highly reliable and are in common use in commercial and business aircraft. Recent
advances in MEMS manufacturing have brought the price of FAA certified AHRS down to below $15,000. AHRS are typically
integrated into Electronic Flight Information Systems (EFIS), which are the central part of so-called glass cockpits. AHRS are
often combined with air data computers to form an "air data, attitude and heading reference systems" (ADAHRS), which
provide additional information such as airspeed, altitude and outside air temperature.

middle ear cavity, sinuses - frontal and maxillary and improperly filled teeth.
