  • Patent number: 12518636
    Abstract: A system for calculating a mission of an aircraft by combination of algorithms includes a first path calculation module, configured for calculating an optimal mission path between a geographical point of origin and a geographical destination point as a function of airplane performance, operational mission specifications and a weather context. The first calculation module is configured to determine the optimal path in a manner non constrained by a network of waypoints and/or imposed paths between the waypoints. The system includes a definition module, around the optimal path, an optimization region of the path and a second path calculating module, configured to calculate an optimized path of the aircraft in the optimization region in a manner constrained by a network of waypoints and/or imposed paths between the waypoints.

  • Patent number: 11436928
    Abstract: Aircraft mission calculation system includes a first calculator configured to calculate a plurality of iso-displacement curves from a selected point, at a displacement range corresponding to several successive displacement increments of the aircraft from the selected point, the iso-displacement curves being obtained at the displacement range for a displacement of the aircraft to a given flight level from displacements of the aircraft at distinct flight altitude levels. The first calculator is configured to determine, based on iso-displacement curves up to the given flight level, obtained at distinct flight altitude levels, taken at the same displacement range of the aircraft, an extended iso-displacement curve at the given flight level maximizing the displacement of the aircraft from the geographical point of origin or minimizing the displacement of the aircraft toward the geographical destination point.
