Android-system-based EFB (electronic flight bag) navigation system and using method thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to an Android-system-based EFB (electronic flight bag) navigation system and a using method thereof. The Android-system-based EFB navigation system comprises an information receiving module, a data processing module, a selecting module and a display module, wherein the information receiving module is used for receiving information in a ground flight plan; the data processing module is used for loading the received flight plan information in a map; the selecting module is used for selecting route information required to be navigated from the map according to a flight need; the display module is used for displaying the map and navigation information. The Android-system-based EFB navigation system can graphically display the flight plan on the map by loading the flight plan information into a geography information system (GIS) of an Android system, and can check information of a corresponding waypoint by clicking the waypoint displayed on the map.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of flight, in particular to an EFB navigation system based on an Android system and a using method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the development of the aviation industry, the size of the flight fleet is getting larger and larger. The flight bag (including about 18KG paper documents such as the aircraft operation manual, crew operation manual, and navigation charts) is necessary for each flight. Instead, The demand for the EFB (Electronic Flight Bag system) system of the flight bag is also more and more urgent. EFB is a general-purpose electronic computing platform, usually light, about 0.5-2.2KG, and is an electronic information system for flight crew to perform flight management tasks more easily and effectively. [0003] The current EFB system applications, such as Class 1, are mostly developed based on Apple's IOS operating system, and are mostly used on IPADs. But it suffers from expensiv...

[0004] At the same time, in the current EFB software, for the flight plan part of the entire flight process, the pilot mainly brings the paper flight plan to the plane to view it during the flight or sets the flight plan as an electronic version in PDF format on the electronic device View, but this viewing method needs to find the required corresponding information among the numerous information of the flight plan, which makes it time-consuming and laborious for the pilot to view the flight information during the flight, and is prone to errors
