What is the main purpose of Aeronautical Radionavigation frequencies?

The main purpose of Aeronautical Radionavigation frequencies is to facilitate the navigation of aircraft within controlled airspace. These frequencies are specifically allocated for use by equipment and systems that assist pilots in determining their position, following flight paths, and ensuring safe distances from other aircraft during flight operations. Through technologies such as VOR (VHF Omnidirectional Range), DME (Distance Measuring Equipment), and RNAV (Area Navigation), these frequencies enhance the precision of navigation, contributing significantly to overall flight safety and efficiency.

While communication with flight control centers, air traffic management, and weather information dissemination are crucial components of aviation operations, they utilize different frequencies and systems. Navigation frequencies specifically cater to the navigational needs of aircraft, ensuring they can operate effectively and safely within their designated airspace.
