Abstract The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has developed a specification for localizer information on the runway surface appropriate for rollout guidance during Category III B operations. The suitability of this specification was evaluated by systems analysis and simulation and is reported herein. The results of the performance evaluation for a representative rollout guidance system indicate that the specification is too stringent especially for higher frequency type localizer disturbances and therefore should consider the spectral characteristics of the localizer disturbance. A more relaxed specification was therefore developed by taking additional advantage of the sensitivity effect of the localizer receiver and the attenuating effect of the rollout guidance system on localizer disturbances.
