  • Method and device of terrain avoidance for an aircraft
    Patent number: 9092980
    Abstract: According to the invention, a terrain avoidance maneuver is engaged when the alerts of a given pair of alerts are emitted simultaneously, the triggering of one of the alerts depending on the information provided by a first measurement chain and the triggering of the other alert of the pair relying on information provided by a second measurement chain, distinct from and independent of the first chain.
    Type: Grant

    Assignee: AIRBUS OPERATIONS SAS
    Inventors: Paule Botargues, Nicolas Caule, Christelle Ledauphin, Jérôme Bailly, Isabelle Lacaze, Sylvain Thezelais, Jérôme Goyet
  • Method and device of terrain avoidance for an aircraft
    Patent number: 8200421
    Abstract: An altitude profile representative of the terrain overflown by an aircraft is established. Thereafter, an altitude limit curve which comprises an intersection with the altitude profile upon the engagement of a terrain avoidance maneuver is determined. As soon as there is no longer any intersection of the limit curve with the altitude profile, the terrain avoidance maneuver is interrupted.

  • Method and Device of Terrain Avoidance for an Aircraft
    Publication number: 20100100261
    Abstract: According to the invention, an altitude profile (PA) representative of the terrain overflown by the aircraft (AC) is established, and then an altitude limit curve (C) which comprises an intersection with said profile (PA) upon the engagement of a terrain avoidance maneuver is determined. As soon as there is no longer any intersection of the limit curve (C) with the altitude profile (PA), said terrain avoidance maneuver is interrupted.
