What is DME?

DME, or Distance Measuring Equipment, is a transponder-based radio navigation technology that provides pilots with slant range distance to a ground station. Aircraft transmit an interrogation signal to a DME ground station, which replies with a response. The aircraft's DME unit calculates the distance based on the time delay between the interrogation and response. It is commonly used in aviation for navigation, particularly in conjunction with VOR (VHF Omnidirectional Range) stations, to provide both distance and bearing information. DME is essential for IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) navigation and precision approaches.
