Problems solved by technology

but so far there is no method or device capable of defining the switching point onboard the aircraft
It is only known to be able to store standardized points in the database for all approaches, however this will not work for all approach situations

Embodiment Construction

[0043] in depicting the invention's figure 1 The device 1 shown schematically in is a device for assisting the piloting of an aircraft 14 during the approach phase for landing purposes. The device 1 comprises a guidance system 2 and a computing system 3 . Computing system 3 sends data to guidance system 2 which sends command commands to conventional command means 4 for piloting aircraft 14 . The device 1 is embedded in an aircraft 14 , in particular a transport aircraft.

[0044]During the landing of aircraft 14, the approach phase includes an initial phase P1 ( figure 2 and Figure 5 ) and a terminating phase P2, an initial phase P1 upstream of the transition points 15, 27, during which the aircraft 14 is guided in the flight path 10 according to a predetermined flight plan 9 while adhering to the constraints of navigation and guidance performance, During a terminal phase P2 downstream of said transition point 15 , 27 between said transition point 15 , 27 and a landing o...

Abstract

A method and apparatus for assisting in piloting an aircraft during the approach phase for landing purposes. The pilot assistance device comprises a guidance system configured to guide the aircraft (14) according to a first guidance mode during an initial phase (P1) upstream of a transition point (15), and subsequently at said transition point (15) During the termination phase (P2) between landing and the aircraft (14) is guided according to the second guidance mode, the device also includes a calculation system configured to automatically calculate the coordinates of the transition point (15), the guidance The system is also configured for automatically deactivating the second guidance mode upstream of said switching point (15).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and a device for assisting the piloting of an aircraft during the approach phase for landing purposes. Background technique [0002] During the approach for landing purposes, certain aircraft employ a so-called first "performance" navigation mode of the PBN (Performance based Navigation) type during the first phase; then during the second phase, these The aircraft is guided by an approach system of the x-LS (x-landing System) type. [0003] The PBN mode is a type of navigation that defines operations related to a specified performance level, including lateral navigation and vertical navigation. For lateral navigation, the concept of RNP (Required Navigation Performance) routes is defined. This is a surface extending on both sides of the setpoint trajectory, in which surface the aircraft must stay with a certain probability. Specifically, the known precision route has a width of 2xRNP, within which the aircraft must ...
