Embodiment Construction

[0066] According to the invention and in figure 1 The system 1 shown diagrammatically in is used to automatically manage in flight an aircraft A called a reference aircraft (or a following aircraft) with respect to at least one target aircraft (or a following aircraft) before the aircraft A. ) The interval of other aircraft B. The automatic management system 1 installed in a reference aircraft A, especially a civil or military transport aircraft, is used in particular to guide the reference aircraft A so that it can follow at specific intervals.

[0067] To this end, the system 1 includes a device 2 including a device 3 and a system 4 that make it possible to automatically use the main functions. The main functions include acquisition and maintenance functions, which make it possible to automatically acquire and maintain the interval between the reference aircraft A and the target aircraft B, also for example a civil or military transport aircraft.

[0068] More precisely, the dev...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and device for automatically managing the separation between two aircraft following one another. The device (1) comprises a means (6, 7) for automatically calculating, prior to performing a function to acquire and maintain separation, orders for controlling speed that enable a trailing aircraft to acquire and maintain a time separation relative to a target aircraft preceding the former.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and system for automatically managing the interval between at least one aircraft called a reference aircraft and at least one other aircraft before the aircraft called a target aircraft. [0002] The present invention can be applied in the cruise phase, especially in order to make a group of aircraft such as transport aircraft fly one after another. The invention can also be applied to the approach phase for landing especially on an airport runway. [0003] Regarding such approach, it is known that due to the continuous increase in air traffic, new methods are sought to prevent saturation of the most heavily loaded airport area. One of these methods is to authorize an aircraft (following aircraft), especially a transport aircraft, to automatically control the interval of another aircraft flying before the aircraft (followed aircraft) in the terminal area of ​​air traffic control. carried out. In order to implement s...
