Patent References 3281789 3373405 Automatic direction finding equipment for airplanes Wind shear warning system System for providing an indication of wind shear System for transmitting airport weather information Patent #: 4163216 InventorApplicationNo. 06/036518 filed on 05/07/1979US Classes:340/870.01, CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE INDICATING (E.G., TELEMETERING)340/870.1, For radio sonde340/949Wind directionExaminersPrimary: Yusko, Donald J.Attorney, Agent or FirmInternational ClassesG01W 1/00 (20060101)H04M 11/00 (20060101) AbstractA method for providing real-time weather and other information about an airport to an aircraft. The method comprises the steps of generating a signal representing instantaneous weather information, determining a real-time weather information value from the instantaneous weather information signal over a predetermined time interval, generating an address signal representing the real-time weather information value, storing a plurality of signals representing real-time weather information messages, generating one of the message signals corresponding to the real-time weather information value in response to the address signal, and transmitting the message signal to a receiver on the aircraft. | |
