A function is said to use conical co-ordinates when the decoded guidance angle varies as the minimum angle between the surface of a cone containing the receiver antenna, and a plane perpendicular to the axis of the cone and passing through its apex. The apex of the cone is at the antenna phase centre. For approach azimuth or back azimuth functions, the plane is the vertical plane containing the runway centre line. For elevation functions, the plane is horizontal. 1, record 4, English, - coordinate%20system%20%2D%20conical

On dit qu'une fonction utilise des coordonnées coniques lorsque l'angle de guidage décodé varie de la même façon que l'angle minimal formé par la surface d'un cône contenant l'antenne de réception avec un plan perpendiculaire à l'axe de ce cône et passant par son sommet. Ce dernier coïncide avec le centre de phase de l'antenne. Dans le cas des fonctions d'azimut d'approche et d'azimut arrière, ce plan est le plan vertical passant par l'axe de piste. Dans le cas des fonctions de site, ce plan est horizontal. 1, record 4, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20de%20coordonn%C3%A9es%20%2D%20Coordonn%C3%A9es%20coniques
