How can I triangulate a position using two DMEs?
Determination of the points coordinates
The DME/DME/Elevation case boils down to:
Two DME stations $\small U$ and $\small S$ with known latitudes, longitudes and altitudes ($\small L_U$, $\small \lambda_U … This step checks whether the two DME range spheres intersect. …

What are the modulation parameters of a DME?
TACAN / VORTAC DME
In a TACAN the DME reply pairs from the transponder are also used for bearing determination. … For a separate DME (not part of a TACAN, e.g. VOR-DME) there is no rotating antenna, no NRB/ARB, the signal amplitude is constant. …

Are there two navaids on the same frequency close enough to be confused?
Short answer
ICAO recommendations include a protection for same-frequency navaids, restricting the received power of undesired stations to a level preventing interferences. To meet this restriction sa …
