Abstract: Method for determining navigation parameters of an aircraft, characterized in that it consists at least in determining the geographic speed {right arrow over (V)}, expressed in a given local fixed coordinate system {{right arrow over (i)}, {right arrow over (j)}, {right arrow over (k)}}, based on the measurements m, of carrier phase increments ??i of the radio navigation signals originating from a plurality of radio navigation satellites in sight of said aircraft, each of said measurements mi constituting an estimate of the relative speed of said aircraft relative to said satellite projected onto the sight axis linking the aircraft to the satellite, each of said measurements m, being compensated by the apparent radial speed of the satellite.

Abstract: An inertial system measures the attitude of an aircraft consisting at least in determining the angle of pitch and/or the angle of heading and/or the angle of roll of the aircraft, each of the said angles of attitude being determined by successive double integration of their second derivative. A pair of accelerometers to determine the angle of pitch being are disposed on either side of the centre of gravity along an axis substantially merged with the longitudinal axis of the aircraft. A pair of accelerometers to determine the angle of heading are disposed on either side of the centre of gravity along an axis substantially merged with the transverse axis of the aircraft. A pair of accelerometers to determine the angle of roll are disposed on either side of the centre of gravity along a vertical axis perpendicular to the plane formed by the other axes.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a distributed architecture for all aerial navigation aids. So that this architecture makes it possible to reduce the weight and/or the bulk of the cables linking the antennas to the corresponding equipment, as well as the weight and/or the bulk of at least part of said equipment, a part at least of the receivers is sited remotely in proximity to the corresponding antennas, and a part at least of the power supply for the equipment of the aircraft is centralized, and this centralized supply distributes a stabilized DC power supply to the remotely sited equipment.
