LED Navigation Lighting Application Prospect In Large Airports

Airport navigation lighting system is an important reference for aircraft landing and ground taxiing. In recent years, with the advent of LED navigation aids, it is a major improvement in the technology of navigation aids. Early listing, because of its high price is difficult to promote in the civil aviation industry, and as technology matures and process improvement, LED lamps compared to the traditional lamp price gap is gradually reduced, and its operational stability, light source life, color, Luminous uniformity, energy-saving advantages are obvious, which gives LED navigation lighting in the airport to promote the convenience of the conditions.

According to the data from 2017, the number of domestic airports reached 32 that with passenger throughput reaching more than 10 million. Taking the capital airport as an example, the number of flights still shows an increasing trend each year, and the aircraft models are also getting larger and larger. There are airlines queuing to enter the capital airport flight time, in this context, the contradiction between aircraft operation and maintenance of surface facilities is increasingly apparent, therefore, to improve the stability of ground facilities reached a consensus within the airport.

This year, on the basis of adhering to the bottom line of flight safety, the CAAC proposed the concept of high-quality development and put forward even higher requirements for the operation and management of airports. Runway safety is also the top priority. In this context, the runway protection Safety, shift the focus of work to the maintenance of the runway facilities, reached a consensus within the airport, LED lighting due to its low failure rate, the LED lighting become peoples best select due to it can reducing the workload of maintenance personnel, improve the stability of the navigation light system, transfer people's focus of work.
