A method and related apparatus for calculating aircraft coordinates

Abstract

This application discloses a method and related apparatus for calculating aircraft coordinates. In this method, the initial position of the aircraft is obtained in a first coordinate system, along with its first coordinates. In a second coordinate system, a first displacement vector is determined, indicating the aircraft's movement from the initial position to the target position. Based on the first coordinates and the first displacement vector, the second coordinates of the target position of the aircraft in the first coordinate system are calculated. Due to the characteristics of the Cartesian coordinate system, the displacement vector between two coordinate points can be obtained from the coordinates of those two points. Therefore, based on this vector principle, the second coordinates of the target position of the aircraft can be calculated in reverse, using the first displacement vector between the initial position and the target position of the aircraft, and the first coordinates of the initial position. This simplifies the calculation process for aircraft coordinates, increases calculation speed, reduces calculation costs, and thus improves the application effect in scenarios where the accuracy requirements for aircraft coordinates are not high.
