Research on Application of LED Navaid Lighting in Airfield Area of Civil Airports

摘要

The energy consumption of airport lighting, especially that of navaid lighting in airfield area, accounts for a lion share of the total, rendering the energy saving and emission reduction of the navaid lighting system important in the construction of civil airports. Application of LED light source that is with certain advantages can largely lower energy consumption and maintenance costs. The dissertation compares the LED lighting source with its traditional brethren — halogen lighting from the perspectives of service life, energy saving and emission reduction, operation and maintenance, and return on investment, and elaborates and explores the application and development of LED navaid lighting in civil airports around the world.
