Abstract
Systems and methods for accurately converting angular localizer data into rectilinear localizer data thereby allowing for improved localizer capture performance and stability. The systems and methods utilize information onboard an aircraft regarding the aircraft's current position and the destination runway's position to more accurately determine a distance measurement for converting angular deviations into rectilinear deviations.
