The TACAN/DME system of navigation operates in the same frequency band as the FAA Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon System (ATCRBS). Historically, there has been interference to ATCRBS from TACAN/DME. Operational significance of the interference has not been treated. The report examines the theoretical and empirical interference phenomena. The report provides predictions of interference, resultant degradation, and channel restrictions necessary to eliminate it. (Author)
