Description Radio navigational aid apparatus typically consist of a transmitter and a receiver. Transmitters emit radio waves that are picked up by receivers. Radio waves are basically electromagnetic waves, so they spread out in all directions from their source and can be picked up by receivers that are fairly far away from the source. Transmitters emit continuous waves, so receivers can pick up a signal as long as they are in range. Receivers convert the electromagnetic waves into electric signals that are made up of pulses, and the receiver uses these pulses to pinpoint the location of the transmitter. This system works very reliably and
