    Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing error detection latency in LPV approaches are provided. In certain embodiments, a method for navigational guidance includes calibrating inertial measurements acquired from an inertial navigation system with satellite-based augmentation system position measurements acquired from a satellite-based augmentation system to create corrected inertial navigation system positions. The method also includes determining whether the satellite-based augmentation system experienced a fault when the inertial measurements were calibrated with the satellite-based augmentation system position measurements. Further, when the satellite-based augmentation system did not experience a fault, the method includes monitoring the satellite-based augmentation system navigation position measurements based on the corrected inertial navigation system positions.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for improving presentation of terrain/obstacle alerting information in a composite (synthetic and sensor) image. An exemplary system includes an imaging device that obtains image data for a region exterior to the vehicle, a processing system, and a display device. The processing system is in data communication with the display device and the imaging device. The processing system receives information from an alerting (e.g., a terrain awareness and warning) system and the obtained image data, colors, or makes transparent at least a portion of the obtained image data, if the received information indicates that an alert condition exists for the portion of the obtained image data, and generates a composite image comprising a previously generated synthetic image and the obtained image data with the enhanced portion. The display device displays the composite image. The obtained image data overlie the synthetic image.

    Abstract: A system and methods of displaying airport field features on a flight deck display element of an aircraft are provided. The flight deck display system obtains geographic position data and heading data for the aircraft, accesses airport feature data associated with synthetic graphical representations of an airport field, and renders a dynamic synthetic display of the airport field on the flight deck display element. The dynamic synthetic display is rendered in accordance with the geographic position data, the heading data, and the airport feature data. In certain embodiments the synthetic display includes graphical representations of taxiways/runways, along with signage that is conformally rendered on the exposed taxiway surfaces. Display characteristics of the signage may be influenced by the actual physical and/or temporal proximity of the aircraft relative to reference locations on the airport field. In some embodiments, the taxiway/runway signage includes dynamic directional indicators corresponding to the intended directions of travel on the taxiways/runways. Moreover, the taxiway/runway signage can be dynamically rendered in a forward-facing manner at all times on the flight deck display element.
