  • Publication number: 20240203270
    Abstract: The system includes a unit for monitoring the aerodrome so as to be able to detect at least one obstacle to determine a current relative position and a current relative speed of the aircraft (AC) with respect to the detected obstacle, and to detect a future or potential collision of the aircraft (AC) with the obstacle according to at least this current relative position and this current relative speed. The system also includes a unit for, in the event of detection of a future collision, implementing at least one action intended to help to avoid this future collision. The system is configured to provide assistance to the pilot of the aircraft by improving his awareness of the future collision, by means of warning messages and/or ground navigation aids, and by providing protection of last resort in the form of an automatic avoidance maneuver.

  • Publication number: 20240203274
    Abstract: The system includes a unit for surveying the airfield to detect, by an optical detection, one or more characteristic elements corresponding to a mandatory characteristic element corresponding to a stop marking on the ground, a taxi-holding position of a runway of the airfield, to determine a current relative position of the aircraft with respect to a taxi-holding position for which at least the mandatory characteristic element has been detected and to detect a future entry onto the runway of the airfield by the aircraft, a unit for deducing a future incursion if this future entry is not cleared and a unit for implementing an action intended to assist in avoiding, the future incursion, the system being configured to provide assistance to the aircraft pilot by improving awareness concerning a possible incursion onto a runway, by alert or ground navigation assistance messages and by providing protection via automatic braking.

  • Publication number: 20240203273
    Abstract: A method and system for assisting a pilot of an aircraft when the aircraft is taxiing on a traffic lane of an airport are described. The system includes a unit for receiving at least a part of a path (TR) to be followed by the aircraft (AC) on the airport, a unit for surveying the airport so as to be able to detect a characteristic element of a traffic lane taken by the aircraft (AC), to determine a current relative position of the aircraft (AC) with respect to the characteristic element detected and to deduce therefrom at least one assistance information item, and a unit for assisting the pilot of the aircraft (AC) when taxiing on the airport by taking into account at least this assistance information item, this assistance being able to be implemented according to a plurality of different, more or less automated, assistance modes.

  • Publication number: 20240203272
    Abstract: The system for assisting the avoidance of an excursion by an aircraft from a runway or taxiway of an aerodrome includes a unit for monitoring the aerodrome so as to allow the detection, by optical detection, of a characteristic element of a pathway, for determining a current relative position of a landing gear of the aircraft (AC) with respect to the detected characteristic element, and for detecting a future excursion from the pathway of the aerodrome by the aircraft (AC) on the basis of at least this current relative position, and a unit for assisting the implementation of an action for assisting the avoidance of said future excursion. The system is configured for providing assistance to the pilot of the aircraft by improving his awareness of a potential excursion, by warning and/or ground navigation aid messages, and by providing protection of last resort via automatic braking.
