  • Publication number: 20250138183
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to airport stand arrangement comprising: a display; a radar-based system; and one or more additional systems selected from laser-based systems and imaging systems, wherein the radar-based system and the one or more additional systems together form a combined system, wherein the airport stand arrangement is configured, based on output data from the combined system, to detect and track an aircraft within a stand area when the aircraft is approaching a stand within the stand area for parking at a parking position therein, and configured, based on the detection and tracking of the approaching aircraft, to provide pilot maneuvering guidance information on the display for aiding a pilot of the approaching aircraft in maneuvering the aircraft towards the parking position.

  • Patent number: 11053023
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for guiding a pilot of an approaching aircraft to a stop position at a stand, said method being characterized by: monitoring a position of the approaching aircraft within a volume at the stand, comparing said monitored position with a first area, said first area enclosing the stop position, comparing said monitored position with a subsection of the first area enclosing the stop position, if said monitored position is inside said subsection: transmitting information to a display to show an indication to the pilot to proceed approaching the stand, and if said monitored position is inside the first area but not inside said subsection: transmitting information to the display to show an indication to the pilot to stop the aircraft. The disclosure further relates to an aircraft docking system.
