Definitions
- the field of the invention relates to drones, and more specifically to a navigation aid system for a drone in non-segregated airspace.
- drones are increasingly used for reconnaissance and attacking non-cooperative targets.
- there are many applications for drone systems in the civil sphere (agricultural spreading, forest fire monitoring, Search & Rescue, event tracking, event monitoring).
- the targets sought are often located in or near civilian areas.
- the insertion of drones in these areas with regulated traffic is problematic because these machines do not have the full insertion capabilities.
- the avionics systems performing flight management functions are massively located on the ground, the aircraft embarking only the bare minimum to navigate in the short term. Consequently, these machines are subjected to draconian procedures: several days' notice, escort aircraft, closing of civil traffic during a time slot.
- the drone is used as a communication relay between the operator and the controller.
- the operator communicates voice messages with the drone by means of an analog or digital transmission (VHF or VoIP, voice over IP), the drone comprises a means of converting digital voice messages into analog voice messages in order to transmit by means of an analog transmission of the VHF ("very high frequency”), HF ("High Frequency”) type.

- it includes a flight control activation means in response to a text message.
- it comprises a flight control activation means in response to a detected flight event.
- a first advantage of the navigation aid system is the reduction of the management effort due to the automation of repetitive or low value-added navigation tasks.
- a second advantage is the simplification of the training of drone operators by limiting the need for knowledge in phraseology.
- a third advantage is the maintenance of the voice messaging capability even in case of loss of link between the ground operator and the drone systems.
- a fourth advantage is the homogenization of the management of the drone through communication means in voice-type dialogue mode and CPDLC type, thus making it possible to adapt to any flight environment during the transition phase of the voice dialogue mode.

The different distribution options of the functional means P1 to P5 do not limit the scope of the claimed invention.
- the devices and calculators capable of performing the previously enumerated functions are known to those skilled in the art.
- the navigation aid system of the drone comprises a second functional unit dedicated to analyzing the context of the mission and the mission plan so as to automatically generate navigation messages for the operator and the air traffic controller.
- This functional unit is particularly intended for the management of instructions to be executed at a non-immediate moment in the flight plan when a flight condition is fulfilled (for example when approaching an area under the control of 'another air authority).
- This second functional set is named in the figure CONTEXT.
- the CONTEXT functional unit comprises means for detecting flight events related to the state of the aircraft and the navigation of the aircraft.

- the CONTEXT package comprises a fourth means C4 for providing data relating to the navigation in a flight space, such as, for example, the movement procedures, the communication procedures and the delineations of the flight spaces.
- the data from the means C1 to C4 are transmitted to a computer C5 capable of detecting flight events from the set of data provided by C1 to C4.
- the computer uses a flight event detection algorithm which takes as input parameter the data related to the navigation of the aircraft (aircraft trajectory parameter and the navigation data of an airspace). and the current state of the vehicle are compared with the geo-location and trajectory data.
- These flight events are used to transmit messages representative of these events to the operator of the aircraft, for example the messages from C5 are event messages that have been detected on board (failures, levels of the gauges of the aircraft). fuel ...) allowing him to obtain indications on the current state of the aircraft.
- These representative messages of events intended for the drone operator serve to facilitate decision-making for the pilot of the aircraft and the planning of the actions to be taken to interact with the other actors of the airspace.
- These event messages can also be used to create a task list that is presented to the operator on his control console.
- the event data is transmitted to the digital format data transmission device P1 between the drone operator and the drone.
- these event messages may be an indication of passage around an aerodrome, the exit or arrival in a control zone and the frequency change associated with the control zone, the arrival in a prohibited zone.
- the figure 2 illustrates the case where the flight plan of an aircraft plans to cross two airspaces controlled by different authorities and each communicating by means of a different communication frequency.
- the controller of the first airspace communicates by voice on a frequency FQ1 while the controller of the second airspace communicates by voice on a frequency FQ2.
- an information message indicating the change of frequency is then sent to the operator and entered into a list of tasks to be performed.
- the air controller of the first airspace communicates in CPDLC dialogue mode and the air controller of the second airspace communicates in dialogue voice then a message requesting the change of mode of dialogue is sent to the operator.
- the functional means of the CONTEXT package can be arranged according to several distribution options. According to a first distribution option, the functional means C1 to C5 are embarked on board the aircraft. According to additional distribution options, all or part of the functional means C2 to C5 are arranged at the ground station of the operator.
- the different distribution options of the functional means C1 to C5 and the development of the associated architecture to be implemented are within the abilities of those skilled in the art and therefore do not limit the scope of the claimed invention.
- the navigation aid system of the drone comprises a third functional unit dedicated to the development and management of messages intended for the air traffic controller.
- This third functional set is named MESSAGE in the figure.
- the MESSAGE functional unit comprises a first means M1 for producing a message corresponding to a flight event transmitted by the computer C5.
- the context set transmits to the MESSAGE set the detected flight events.
- the means M1 generates the content of a message to be transmitted to the air traffic controller.
- the contents of elaborate messages are inserted into a message list and a priority order is assigned to each message.
- the MESSAGE set comprises a second means M2 for scheduling the message contents in the message list.
- the set MESSAGE comprises at least a third means M3 for synthesizing the content of the message in a first dialog mode and preferably comprises a fourth means M4 for synthesizing the content of the message in a second dialog mode.
- the means M3 is a function implemented by a computer that can generate a voice message from the content of a message produced by the means M1.
- the function develops voice phraseology for an air traffic controller.
- the voice message is transmitted to the voice communication device P3, of the transmission set PHRASEO, which can transmit analogue voice messages on the frequency used by the air traffic controller.
- the means M4 is a function implemented by a computer that can generate a CPDLC message from the content of a message produced by the means M1.
- the function generates the CPDLC text message for an air traffic controller.
- the CPDLC message is transmitted to the communication device P5, of the transmission set PHRASEO, which can issue CPDLC messages.
- the messages from M3 and M4 are messages intended for ATC and therefore correspond either to ATC requests (level change for example) or to standardized self-information, that is to say messages communication requirements for ATC.
- the PHRASEO transmission set comprises means for converting P6 voice messages into text data and means P7 for synthesizing text data into messages according to the CPDLC text communication standard.
- the conversion means P6 is in data connection on the one hand with the P2 voice communication relay and on the other hand with the text data synthesis means P7.
- the text data synthesis means is also connected to the communication device P1.
- the conversion means P6 can also be in direct connection with the communication device P1 so as to directly transmit the raw text data from the conversion to the operator console. In this way, the message sent to the operator is not in the CPDLC communication format.
- the conversion means P6 implements a first filter function of the voice data coming from the P2 voice communication relay.
- This filtering function analyzes all the voice messages sent by the air controller so as to detect the identifier of the aircraft receiving the message to transmit only the messages intended for the drone.
- This filtering function makes it possible not to overload the ground operator with messages that are not intended for him. In addition, this filtering reduces the data bandwidth used for communication between the drone and the ground operator.
- the conversion means P6 implements a second function for voice recognition of the voice messages originating from the transmission relay P2.
- voice messages from the operator and the ATC controller can be converted to text data.
- the transmission of messages in text format rather than voice format has the advantage of reducing the number of data to be transmitted and thus reduces the bandwidth required.
- the voice-text conversion function can be implemented by a computer supporting voice recognition software.
- the CPDLC synthesis means P7 implements a first function of synthesis of the CPDLC messages corresponding to the text data resulting from the conversion P6.
- the operator receives the data from the ATC controller, when communicating by voicemail, in CPDLC format messages.
- This has the advantage that the operator has to manage a single CPDLC messaging interface regardless of the dialogue mode used by the ATC controller (s). Whether the latter communicates by voicemail or CPDLC messaging, the operator receives the messages in CPDLC format.
- the CPDLC synthesis means P7 implements a second CPDLC message synthesis function corresponding to a request from the air traffic controller.
- the drone is capable of analyzing an ATC request, collating it and transmitting to the drone operator the CPDLC response command corresponding to the request of the air traffic controller. In this way, the risk of poor order resulting from a misunderstanding of the ATC request is reduced to zero. In addition it secures the voice command of the drone to the extent that the air controller sees what has been understood by the operator of the drone.
- This more sophisticated variant of the navigation aid system comprising the conversion means P6 and the CPDLC synthesis means P7 ensures a flight autonomy of the drone when the communication link with the flight operator is lost.
- the navigation aid system may transform the voice command into a CPDLC command (via the voice recognition function hosted in P6), analyze and execute the CPDLC command, determine the corresponding standardized CPDLC response to the CPDLC command, and to inform the air controller by voice (by transforming the standardized reception CPDLC response into analog voice via the means P1, P2 and P3).
- these are immediate-action commands ("level up xxx”, “take cap yyy”, “perform a live on the zzz point").
- the immediate effect commands can be processed directly between the functional means P7 and the communication device P5.
- the navigation aid system may transform the voice command into a CPDLC command, analyze and execute the command when the trigger condition of the action is detected, and inform the air traffic controller by voice (by transforming the standardized reception CPDLC response into analog voice via the means P1, P2 and P3).
- the navigation aid system has the advantage of subtracting a flight control task from the flight operator, to ensure that the instruction inserted in the flight plan corresponds to the instruction requested by the flight operator.
- ATC and ensure the flight autonomy of the aircraft in case of loss of connection with the operator.
- the functional means P6 and P7 can be arranged according to several distribution options. According to a first distribution option, the functional means P6 and P7 are embarked on board the aircraft. According to a second distribution option where the set of voice communication means P2 and P3 are on the ground, the functional means P6 and P7 are also arranged at the ground station of the operator.
- the different distribution options of the functional means P1 to P7 do not limit the scope of the claimed invention.
- the devices and calculators capable of performing the previously enumerated functions are known to those skilled in the art.
- the navigation aid system is intended particularly for ground or onboard systems for unmanned aerial vehicles on board drone type.
