    摘要: A communication system for secure communication between a flying aircraft, wherein a communication infrastructure is provided in both aircraft as well as a computer program establishing a communication link between the aircraft. The first aircraft may be provided with a first communication node and a first processing unit and the second aircraft may be provided with a second communication node and a second processing unit. The communication system comprises a computer program product which is configured, when executed on the processing units of the aircraft, to cause the communication system to establish a communication link between the flying aircraft when a distance between the flying aircraft is in a short range.

    摘要: An automatic trajectory generation method for an aircraft in flight to exit a meteorological alert situation which: obtains polygons representative of meteorological obstacles; defines two circles centered to the right and to the left with respect to a current in-flight position, of a minimum radius in accordance with the operational state of the aircraft; identifies, for each polygon, candidate external sides for the aircraft to exit; defines straight lines perpendicular to the candidate external sides and tangent to one or both of the circles; determines, for each straight line, a candidate safety position, which is located at a margin distance outside any polygon; forms candidate exit trajectories between the current in-flight position and each candidate safety position; and selects the candidate trajectory which minimizes a time of exposure of the aircraft to any meteorological obstacle. Also a system and an aircraft with such a system.

    摘要: A method for providing an operational state of a monitored landing gear of an aircraft by: obtaining in real-time captured signals, such as images, of an actual position of the monitored landing gear; transforming the captured signals in a descriptor vector using Principal Components Analysis; injecting the descriptor vector in a machine learning-based model trained and configured to transform descriptor vectors into equivalent operational states of landing gears; and providing the operational state of the monitored landing gear to avionics of the aircraft.
