Abstract: A method of locating an aircraft in flight by means of a locating device including at least one sensor and a radar, the method including a first phase of determining a position of the aircraft, referred to as the first position, by means of the at least one sensor according to a signal supplied by the at least one sensor, a second phase of determining, at the same time as the first determination phase, a position of the aircraft, referred to as the second position, by means of the radar, and a phase of comparing data associated with the first position and data associated with the second position after which the first position is either validated or invalidated.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for assisting the landing of an aircraft on a landing runway, the method comprising: detecting, by a radar, characteristic elements of the landing runway, determining the angular offset between the axis of the radar and the runway axis as a function of the coordinates of the characteristic elements detected, and determining, as a function of the angular offset determined and the coordinates of the characteristic elements detected: the distance of the orthogonal projection onto the runway axis from the horizontal projection of the radar, and the distance of the orthogonal projection onto the straight line passing through the runway threshold from the horizontal projection of the radar.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for tracking the carrier phase of a signal received from a satellite by a carrier using a carrier loop of the carrier phase, said signal being acquired by a navigation system of the carrier, said navigation system including a receiver for location by radio navigation, and a self-contained unit, wherein the receiver is suitable for acquiring and tracking the phase of the carrier of the signal from the satellite.
