VOR/DVOR errors
Solution: An adequate numerical analysis for the scattering characteristics of an adequate numerical model of the wind generator has to be established. An integral equation approach (moment method) is the only applicable method. The total system analysis comprisis the antenna problem, the scattering problem and the VOR/DVOR-system analysis itself . The problem is highly tridimensional and have to include the ground and the counterpoise. Theoretical worst case estimates may be applied adequately, e.g. signal to noise ratios and VOR/DVOR improvement factors. Results: Due to the large structure the total wind generator is decomposed electrically into relevant components. Details of the structure influence the modelling, e.g. presence or non-presence of lightning conductors in the blades. The large metallic case has shown to be an effective object as well as the blades depending on its construction and distance to the VOR/DVOR-antenna. Fig. 2 shows a typical behaviour of the signal to noise ratio for a given case and Fig. 3 shows the time/angular variant bistatic scattering pattern of a metallic blade.
