Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The general field of the invention is that of systems for aiding the guidance of a first aircraft travelling around an airport zone. The system according to the invention comprises: a set of databases comprising bulkiness and performance characteristics of the said first aircraft, geometric and technical characteristics of the airport zone and information about the air traffic in the immediate environment of the said first aircraft; calculation means making it possible to firstly determine a safety zone around the said first aircraft taking into account at least the position of the said aircraft, its size and the uncertainty in the measurement of its position; and then a taxiing indication on the basis of the information arising from the databases and the characteristics of the safety zone; viewing means displaying at least one view of the airport one in which the first aircraft is situated and a representation of the said taxiing indication.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A cockpit system for aiding the guidance of a first aircraft travelling around an airport zone, the cockpit system comprising: a first avionics system to determine a safety zone around the first aircraft taking into account at least a position of the aircraft, a wingspan of the aircraft, and an uncertainty in a measurement of the position, wherein the first avionics system is part of the first aircraft; a second avionics system to determine a taxiing indic…
