In this paper, course structure and course width were studied among the main performances of the system to derive the required performance of the modulation index, output power, and phase change specifications of the instrument landing system (ILS) localizer power amplifier. To satisfy the course structure's deviation standard (± 5 uA), the difference in depth of modulation (DDM) deviation standard of the carrier with sideband (CSB) amplifier was standardized to ± 1 uA(0.001 DDM). CSB 30 W power amplifier was designed, and through the modulation compensation circuit, sum in depth of modulation (SDM) is 40% ± 0.1% and DDM is ± 0.0005 DDM in the operating output range(45 dBm ~ 35 dBm). In addition, the course width and displacement sensitivity specifications were analyzed through simulation, and the ± 0.1° change applied during comissioning inspection, which is the most stringent standard, was applied. The output variation of the suppressed with sideband only ( SBO) amplifier was ± 2 mW or less, The phase was standardized to within ± 3 ° and the characteristics were satisfied. By applying a compensation circuit according to output power and temperature, stable modulation index, output, and phase characteristics were obtained.

In this paper, a high-efficiency power amplifier was designed by applying the operating point Class J using LDMOS(laterally diffused metal oxide semiconductor) and optimizing the output matching circuit so that the second harmonic impedance becomes the reactance impedance. The designed power amplifier has a frequency of 108 ~ 110 MHz, Characteristics of PAE(power added efficiency) is 71.5% at P_SAT output (54.5 dBm), 55.5% at P_1dB output (51.5 dBm), and 24.38% at 45 dBm. The CSB(carrier with sideband) amplifier, which is the reference signal in the spatial modulation method, has an operating output of 45 dBm ~ 35 dBm, and linear SDM(sum in the depth of modulation) characteristics(40% ± 0.3%) were obtained. We measure the characteristics in amplitude modulation according to the bias operating point of the power amplifier for CSB and propose the optimal operating point to obtain linear modulation characteristics.

From the announcement which sees discusses about the spatial modulation which is a basic principle of the induction signal which the instrument landing system provides to the aircraft with instrument landing system, depth made be and became the help which makes understand and character did. Explained the fundamental notions of spatial modulation with precedence, the signal which space is modulated with this together influenced to the aircraft receiver and the azimuth and angle of glide were indicated and until with the principle of operation of the aircraft receiver and the process which is general DDM(difference in depth of modulation) and they related they explained.
