Abstract:
A method for guiding an autonomous aircraft, the aircraft includes an automatic pilot, a plurality of sensors and an imaging unit, the aircraft being configured to fly over a geographic zone comprising overflight prohibited zones, the guidance method can advantageously comprise a phase of real flight of the autonomous aircraft by using a given guidance law, comprising the following steps: determining a current state of the autonomous aircraft; determining an optimum action to be executed by using a neural network receiving the current state; determining a plurality of control instructions compatible with the guidance law based on the optimum action to be executed; transmitting to the automatic pilot the plurality of control instructions, which provides a new state of the autonomous aircraft.
Abstract:
A device and method for assisting with reconfiguration of an aircraft, an aircraft including such a device and an associated computer program product are disclosed. In one aspect, the aircraft has an operational configuration, is configured to move in an operational environment, and includes at least one avionic system, at least one avionic member, and at least one monitoring system configured to detect an abnormality of an avionic member or a perturbation of the operational environment and to generate a fault information. The device is connected between at least one monitoring system and at least one avionic system, and includes a reception module configured to receive a fault information from the monitoring system, an impact computation module configured to compute an impact on the operational configuration of the aircraft, and a transmission module configured to transmit the computed impact to at least one avionic system.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an electronic apparatus for assisting an aircraft pilot. The aircraft includes avionics equipment implementing operational capacities and a monitoring system configured to determine monitoring information from operational capacities and operating parameters of the avionics equipment. The assistance apparatus includes in an acquisition module configured to acquire the monitoring information and an anomaly detection module configured to detect at least one anomaly from among a breakdown of an avionics equipment and a failure of an operational capacity, from monitoring information and anomaly detection rules contained in a predefined database. The assistance apparatus includes an inference module configured to identify, for each anomaly, one or several causes that may have caused the anomaly, based on relationships between breakdowns and failures, the relationships being contained in the database.
