  • Pitch alerting angle for enhanced ground proximity warning system (EGPWS)
    Patent number: 6940427
    Abstract: A ground proximity warning system including a pitch angle alerting device, the pitch angle alerting device including warning logic having an input that is structured to receive a signal that is representative of the indicated pitch angle of the aircraft, the warning logic being structured to determine a difference between a pitch angle signal received on the input and a predetermined threshold, the warning logic being structured also to output a signal representative of the difference between the two signals; and an advisory indication generator coupled to accept the output of the warning logic, the advisory indication generator being structured to generate an advisory indication signal as a function of the difference between the two signals.
