الملاحة بعيدة المدى

(تم التحويل من LORAN)

الملاحة البعيدة المدى وتُسمّى أيضًا لوران LORAN (LOng Range Aid to Navigation) هو نظام ملاحة راديوية أرضي يستخدم إرساليات راديوية ذات تردد منخفض تستعمل عدة إرساليات (multilateration) لتحديد موقع و/أو سرعة المستقبل. وهي نظام ملاحي راديوي يساعد السفن والطائرات على تحديد مواقعها. وترسل محطتان أو أكثر تعرفان باسم المحطة الرئيسية والمحطة التابعة الإشارات الراديوية باستمرار، وتستقبل السفينة أوالطائرة هذه الإشارات من خلال أجهزة خاصة. وتقوم هذه الأجهزة بقياس الفترة الزمنية بين النبضات التي تلتقطها من المحطات. ويحدد الفرق في الزمن بين الإشارات التي تلتقطها من محطتين، موقع السفينة أو الطائرة فوق نقطة ما على خط الموقع اللوراني فوق الخريطة. وتوضع علامة على الخريطة لتحديد موقع السفينة أو الطائرة طبقاً للفرق في الزمن بين الإشارات المرسلة من المحطتين.

وفي معظم الحالات، نجد محطة راديوية رئيسية واحدة يقابلها محطة راديوية تابعة من إحدى محطتي التوابع، حيث يسمح هذا الترتيب للملاح أن يقطع خطي موقع لوراني، ليحدد موقع سفينة أو طائرة وبذلك يحسِّن بدرجة كبيرة من دقة نظام الملاحة.

ويستخدم الملاحون نظامًا راديويًا يُعرف باسم لوران ـ سي يستطيع أن يرسل إشارات تقطع 1,600 كم أثناء النهار. وفي بعض الظروف، يصل مداها إلى أكثر من 4,800 كم أثناء الليل عندما تنتقل موجات الراديو منخفضة التردد إلى مسافات أبعد، وبذلك يمكن تحديد أي موقع داخل مدى حوالي نصف كيلومتر.

Principle

A crude diagram of the LORAN principle. The difference between the time of receiption of synchronized signals from radio stations A and B is constant along each hyperbolic curve.[بحاجة لمصدر] When demarcated on a map, such curves are known as "TD lines".
