An instrument landing system (ILS) is a radio beam transmitter that provides a direction for approaching aircraft that tune their receiver to the ILS frequency.
It is a ground-based instrument approach system that provides precision lateral and vertical guidance to an aircraft approaching and landing on a runway, using a combination of radio signals and, in many cases, high-intensity lighting arrays to enable a safe landing during instrument meteorological conditions (IMC), such as lowceilings or reduced visibility due to fog, rain, or blowing snow.
