GROUND PROXIMITY SYSTEM
The system which detects and alerts flight crew to potential terrain hazards. Includes the antenna which transmits and receives an electronic signal for the radio altimeter equipment used for terrain-to-aircraft distance. Also includes the component which interprets a radio signal reflected back to a receiver to determine distance from the nearest terrain; and the component which process the warning computer input signals from various sources in order to determine if and when the crew should be alerted of a terrain hazard.
