Definitions

  • the field of the invention is that of aiding the taxiing of an aircraft on an airport, provided in particular by a representation of the trajectory to be followed by the aircraft on the airport and the display of information relating to the guidance and navigation of the aircraft.
  • One solution is to use the existing systems installed on board the aircraft such as the flight management system or FMS acronym for the English expression Flight Management System, the integrated monitoring system or ISS acronym for the English expression -Soon Integrated Surveillance System and enrich them with assistance functions.

  • RAAS Runway Awareness and Advisory System
  • the object of the invention is to provide an effective taxi aid by having a connectivity of the various elements of an airport.
  • These elements generally come from an airport database and embedded in the aircraft.
  • the connectivity of the elements is advantageously achieved by means of the geometric construction of navigational and guiding nodes of the airport.
  • the latter can be represented on a map as well as the trajectory of an aircraft when the flight control instruction of the air traffic control is known to the crew.
  • the connectivity of the elements then makes it possible to anticipate a certain number of actions of the pilots on the rolling phases.
  • the invention proposes according to the position of the aircraft in the airport to display guidance and navigation information in advance.
  • the figure 1 represents elements of an airport formed of polygons 1, 2 and 3. These elements are called “rolling elements” in the following description. Each of the polygons is described in the airport database by segments and georeferenced points relative to a known origin of the airport.
  • rolling elements can be of different types, for example, “taxiways”, “parking”, “runways” or “service road element” according to the English terminology used in aeronautics.
  • These taxiing elements generally describe parking areas, taxiing areas, taxiway intersections, parts of a runway or areas intended for the entry and exit of service vehicles.
  • the method according to the invention proposes to create a connectivity graph called navigation graph thereafter between the different rolling elements.
  • the data describing the connectivity of the elements of taxiing of the airport are then stored in a database of the aircraft. This database is generally updated in the aircraft in maintenance phases on the ground or before leaving for a new take-off.
  • the method according to the invention proposes to define navigation nodes.
  • the navigation nodes are built geometrically on each border separating two rolling elements.
  • the position of the navigation node on the border may for example be located in the middle of the border, which may comprise one or more segments.
  • the navigation nodes 9 ', 6, 7 and 9 joining the rolling elements 2, 1, and 3 are respectively positioned in the middle of the borders 8', 5, 4 and 8.
  • the navigation nodes are connected by segments 12 , 13 and 14 which each forms a heading of navigation with North N according to the direction towards which the aircraft is heading.
  • the aircraft in this example can flow from the rolling element 2 to the rolling element 3 through the rolling element 1 in a direction 11 or can flow inversely from the rolling element 3 to the element running 2 through the rolling element 1 in the opposite direction 10.
  • vigation arc the segment joining two successive navigation nodes.
  • the set of navigation nodes defines a navigation graph.
  • the figure 2 illustrates an example of a border between two rolling elements 20 and 21 representing each of the zones of the airport.
  • the boundary comprises five segments whose end positions A, B, C, D, E and F are defined in the airport database of the aircraft.
  • the method according to the invention makes it possible to define the medium M of the boundary equidistant from the points A and F.
  • the node M is joined to the downstream node and the upstream node by the segments 22 and 23.
  • the figure 3 illustrates a plane 30 of an airport comprising a runway 31 and rolling elements such as approach or exit lanes on the track 31 and connecting elements of several channels.
  • the navigation nodes are located in the middle of each border of each element.
  • the segments joining the different nodes are represented therein such as the nodes 33 and 34 whose connection is represented by a segment 32.
  • the navigation heading formed by the navigation arc connecting the node 7 to the node 9 to pass from the rolling element 1 to the rolling element 3 is 270 ° with the North.
  • the opposite direction, from the node 9 to the node 7 is the heading 70 °.
  • the method according to the invention makes it possible to overcome in the navigation graph certain types of elements of an airport not necessary to the crew.

  • the Figure 4A represents a part of an airport comprising different rolling elements 45, 42, 44, 41, 48, 46, 43 and 47 of different types.
  • these elements some are intended for service vehicles, including items 42, 41 and 43. They are therefore not necessary for the navigation assistance of the aircraft.

  • the method according to the invention therefore makes it possible to consider the type of an element and its geometric description.
  • the Figure 4B represents, after the merger of the boundaries of the elements not necessary to the crew, the regenerated airport map.
  • the new boundaries 43 ', 41' and 42 ' are boundaries separating rolling elements on which navigation nodes are automatically generated.
  • the method according to the invention makes it possible to define a notion of navigation arc between different nodes.
  • the navigation arcs have no geometric representations but allow on the one hand to link the nodes together in the database and on the other hand to define an average cap between two nodes, noted navigation heading.
  • the construction of the navigation graph constitutes a first step of the method according to the invention for operating in a second step, in particular, one or more instructions (s) of routing from the air traffic control.
  • An instruction sent by the air traffic control to the crew can be for example: TAXI TO "STAND 8" VIA "A-T50-T20-N4". This last instruction is translated “to go to the car park named” STAND 8 "by taking the road passing by the various elements whose names are the following: A, T50, T20, N4.
  • the manual entry of the setpoint by the crew in a cockpit user interface or the automatic acquisition of the setpoint by an onboard computer makes it possible to link the rolling elements of the setpoint by knowing the connections of the navigation graph of the airport.

  • the navigation nodes are located on each of the borders, the elements not necessary for navigation having been deleted from the map by the method.
  • the aircraft will have to pass through the nodes corresponding to each border of the elements mentioned in the instruction.
