A general description of Loran-C: Present and potential applicationsLoran-C is a low frequency (100 kHz) pulse navigation system. The pulse format and phase stability of the system are of paramount importance for both navigation and time synchronization using this system. Present Loran-C installations operated by the U. S. Coast Guard cover much of the northern hemisphere. A recent government-wide decision has declared that Loran-C will be the U. S. Coastal confluence navigation system for the immediate future. Therefore, Loran-C stations are presently being installed or planned to cover the entire U. S. coastline.
