A safety enhancement warning system includes an avoidance system which
communicates with a multiple of geographical positional systems. A
geographic algorithm of the avoidance system utilizes a recursive
algorithmic to determine if the aircraft will enter a sensitive area. If
the aircraft distance to a sensitive area decreases below a predefined
minimum threshold, then an audible and/or visual warning is issued. For
certain sensitive areas, aircraft RF emissions are silenced or reduced in
power when the predetermined minimum threshold breaches the sensitive
area. The use of the avoidance system enables usage of relatively
inexpensive UWB radar for the proximity sensor suite to assure avoidance
of interference with particular delicate instruments and thereby meet
regulations such as those propagated by the FCC.
