5、 Considerations for High-Intensity Lights (HIL) Directed into the Navigable Airspace RATIONALEARP5560 has been reaffirmed to comply with the SAE five-year review policy. INTRODUCTIONOn March 26, 1999, the FAA submitted a written request to the SAE for assistance in developing standards and regulatio

6、ns concerning outdoor laser operations. Since December 1999, the SAE has developed several documents, including: AS4970, “Human Factors Considerations for Outdoor Laser Operations in the Navigable Airspace,” and three Aerospace Recommended Practices: ARP5535, “Observers for Laser Safety in the Navig

7、able Airspace,” ARP5572, “Control Measures for Laser Safety in the Navigable Airspace,” and ARP5293, “Safety Considerations for Lasers Projected in the Navigable Airspace” in support of this request. Although the number of aviation incidents involving high-intensity lights have been much less than w

8、ith laser light sources, such incidents have occurred and the FAA has little guidance on the use such devices in the aviation environment. As a result, the FAA has asked the SAE to develop guidance of high-intensity light devices. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. SCOPE 41.1 Purpose. 42. REFERENCES 42.1 Applicab

25、mical Substances and Physical Agents equal to 1/60 of the luminous intensity per square centimeter of a black body radiating at the temperature of 2046 Kelvin (K). Like candlepower, candela is the measurement of light at the source of illumination. CANDLEPOWER (cp): Luminous intensity expressed in c

26、andelas. FOOT-CANDLE (ft-c): A unit of illuminance on a surface that is everywhere 1 foot from a point source of 1 candle. FLASHBLINDNESS: Flashblindness is a temporary loss of vision that persists after the bright light is terminated, e.g., from a camera flash. Flashblindness can last from several

27、seconds to several minutes. GLARE: Glare refers to temporary disruptions in vision without biological damage and is particularly disruptive under nighttime viewing conditions, especially when the eyes are fully dark-adapted. Glare effects are diminished as the observer looks away from the light sour

28、ce, e.g., headlights from an oncoming car at night. Glare is most pronounced when it occurs in the central field of view and only occurs during illumination. SAE INTERNATIONAL ARP5560 Page 5 of 35_HIGH-INTENSITY LIGHTS (HIL): lights, other than a laser light, exceeding 0.25 million candlepower that

29、are projected into the navigable airspace (e.g., searchlight, handheld spotlight, etc.).ILLUMINANCE: Photometric measure of luminous flux per unit area incident on a surface weighted by the luminosity function for a standard observer. The SI units for illuminance are lux (lumens/m2) or lumens/cm2(1

30、ft-c = 10.8 lux and 1 lux = 0.0929 ft-c). IRRADIANCE: Quotient of the radiant flux incident (from a particular direction) on an element of the surface containing the point at which irradiance is measured, by the area of that element (watt per square centimeter = W/m2).LUMEN (lm): A unit of luminous

31、flux equal to the amount of light given out through a solid angle of 1 steradian (SR) by a point source of 1 candela intensity radiating uniformly in all directions. LUMINAIRE: A complete lighting unit; an assemblage made up of the fixture, trim, and the lamp. LUMINANCE: Photometric measure of the d

32、ensity of luminous intensity per solid angle per unit area emitted from the source. The SI units for luminance are candles/cm2lm/(cm2SR) or candles/m2(1 ft-c = 10.8 lux and 1 lux = 0.0929 ft-c). LUX (lx): A unit of illumination equal to 1 lumen per square meter; 0.0929 ft-c. NATIONAL AIRSPACE SYSTEM

33、 (NAS): A complex, highly interactive “system of systems“ involving large numbers of subsystems and components on the ground, and in the aircraft including facilities, equipment, and computer hardware and software as well as the people which enable hundreds of thousands of users to fly safely every

34、day. NAVIGABLE AIRSPACE: For the purpose of this document, navigable airspace is that airspace that can contain aircraft. Navigable airspace is defined as airspace that is 500 feet from any structure in semi-populated areas. In heavily populated areas, aircraft are required to allow more distances f

35、rom structures. Near airports or heliports, navigable airspace extends to the runway. Helicopter operations may require additional considerations, since they are often flying below 500 feet. OPTICAL RADIATION: Nonionizing electromagnetic emissions in the ultraviolet, visible, and infrared wavelength

36、 ranges. PROPONENT: A person or organization proposing to install or use HIL; specifically, one who provides the FAA with information regarding the safety of a proposed HIL operation. RADIANCE: Radiant flux or power output per unit area per unit source solid angle (watts per square centimeter per st

37、eradian).RADIANT EXPOSURE: Surface density of the radiant energy received (joules per square centimeter). RADIANT INTENSITY: Radiant power emitted by a source per unit solid angle (watts per steradian). SAFETY OBSERVER: One who has been tasked with observing the airspace through which a HIL beam is

38、being projected to ensure that the beam does not illuminate any individual or object that could be injured, impaired, or damaged as a result of such an exposure. The observer must be trained and have the ability to immediately terminate the HIL. SOURCE: A source consists of either a single luminaire

39、 or combination of multiple luminaires (array) that directs light in a common direction. SAE INTERNATIONAL ARP5560 Page 6 of 35_3. BACKGROUND 3.1 Physics of Light The pertinent characteristics of light from HIL in the navigable airspace revolve around questions of illumination intensities great enou

40、gh to cause physical harm to humans or aircraft. However, the effects of HIL projected into the cockpit that can interfere with a pilot performing their operational duties are more relevant. Searchlights are considered a “collimated” light source. This is a column of light whose rays are projected i

41、n parallel. In the case of searchlights, the rays are approximately parallel, and the light beam may expand by 3 degrees. Searchlights within a few meters of the aircraft can not cause physical damage without prolonged exposure times. A laser, by comparison, can be tuned and focused so that it funct

42、ionally emits only a single wavelength of light. This narrow band emission remains well focused over distance as opposed to a searchlight. This focusing improves the visibility of a laser to the pilot and allows the deliverance of more power within a defined area. As a result, lasers may cause physi

43、cal damage to both humans and aircraft at extended distances.The major energy output of a laser is a specific wavelength. Helium-Neon lasers, for example, primarily produce energy at 632.8 nm, in a coherent beam. However, searchlights produce light across a broad spectrum. The typical searchlight bu

44、lb or carbon arc light source will produce significant energy from at least 280 nm through 1500 nm. The primary output of the searchlight is from approximately 400 to 700 nm, which is within the visible light spectrum. There is also significant ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) radiation output fro

45、m searchlights; beyond 100 meters, the UV and IR are not harmful to the human eye and skin. Multiple tests have validated the safety of searchlights at this distance. 3.2 Bioeffects and Physiology of Vision/Vision Effects from High-Intensity Lights The eye consists of the cornea, anterior chamber (a

46、 fluid-filled space between the cornea and the lens), the crystalline lens, vitreous, and retina. The retina contains the photoreceptor elements that, when stimulated by light, send signals to the brain that are perceived as vision. The fovea is the part of the retina on the central visual axis and

47、contains the highestconcentration of cone receptors. Cone receptors are responsible for color vision and also fine visual acuity often exceeding the standard 20/20 measurement. This range of vision is called photopic vision. The cones function best in relatively bright light such as daylight. The more numerous rod receptors are found in the peripheral retina and are 1000 times more sensitive to dim light than the cones. This range of vision is called scotopic vision. Intrabeam viewing of HIL can exceed exposure limits of the eye that can result in
