Système de navigation radioélectrique qui permet à un avion doté de l'équipement nécessaire, d'obtenir une position par intersection de plusieurs lignes de position hyperboliques. Le système fait appel soit à la mesure des différences de temps séparant la réception de l'impulsion émises simultanément, soit à la mesure de la différence de phase séparant à la réception des ondes continues émises en synchronisation de phase. 1, record 1, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20de%20navigation%20hyperbolique

Sistema de radionavegación que da la posición de una aeronave equipada con un receptor adecuado. Esta posición se determina por la intersección de varias líneas de posición hiperbólica. El sistema puede utilizar la diferencia de tiempo que separa la recepción de impulsos emitidos simultáneamente, o la medida de la diferencia de fase de las ondas emitidas de forma continua emitidas con la fase sincronizada. 1, record 1, Spanish, - sistema%20de%20navegaci%C3%B3n%20hiperb%C3%B3lica
