Abstract :
By comparing the present formal methods for drawing light intensity contour of navigation lighting, a new algorithm for fast drawing light intensity contour is proposed. This paper applies the Delaunay triangle split linear interpolation algorithm to draw the PAPI light, and uses B-spline curve for the smooth. And some source code in MATLAB language and its simulation results are also given. Compared with other algorithms, this method has the advantages of accurate and fast.
