Another approach that’s become more rare is the Localizer Back Course approach. According to the FAA’s Instrument Flight ...

The sale could put technology like radar altimeters at greater risk for so-called bleeds. Radio altimeters are devices that operate on the 4.2-4.4 GHz band and are used to measure altitude.

For multi-copter unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) sensing of the actual altitude is an important task. Many functions providing increased flight safety and easy maneuverability rely on altitude data.
