An instrument landing system (ILS) is described. The ILS includes a plurality of antennas and a plurality of antenna radio units (ARUs). Each of the plurality of ARUs operates to generate a modulated RF signal that is provided to a different one of the plurality of antennas for transmission. The ILS also includes a central processing unit operative to control the ARU to adjust synchronization between modulated RF signals provided by the ARU to the plurality of antennas for transmission. 描述了一种仪表着陆系统(ILS)。ILS包括多个天线和多个天线无线电单元(ARU)。多个ARU中的每一个ARU操作以生成调制RF信号，该调制RF信号被提供给多个天线中的不同天线以用于传输。ILS还包括中央处理单元，央处理单元操作以控制ARU以调整由ARU提供给多个天线以用于传输的调制RF信号之间的同步。
