    摘要: Methods and systems for planning, managing, and executing the flight path of an unmanned aerial vehicle are disclosed. In particular, the methods and systems are designed to reduce the likelihood that the UAV will be detected by determining a flight path based on the proximity of the UAV to a point of interest and the visual, acoustic, and infrared signatures of the UAV relative to a point of interest. Additionally, the methods and systems enable a UAV operator to compare a recommend flight path and an altered flight path based on how the altered flight path changes the proximity of the UAV to a point of interest, and changes the visual, acoustic, and infrared signatures of the UAV relative to a point of interest.

    摘要: A method and device for ensuring the safety of a low-altitude flight of an aircraft is disclosed, wherein low-altitude flight is flight along a flight trajectory at low altitude, for example 500 feet, that allows an aircraft to follow as closely as possible the terrain being over-flown. To avoid collision with the terrain, a safety corridor, devoid of any obstacle, is determined which is delimited on either side of the lateral trajectory, and whose width depends on a global uncertainty, and the aircraft is guided along the flight trajectory, avoiding any exit of the aircraft from the safety corridor.

    摘要: A method of automatically guiding an aircraft for flight at low altitude determines an LLF (low level flight) trajectory section for following terrain to be overflown by the aircraft. The LLF trajectory section takes account of predictions of the aircraft's mass and speed and climb and descent performance. The LLF trajectory section includes an entry point and an exit point. The LLF trajectory section is integrated between a first trajectory part corresponding to a first phase of flight and a second trajectory part corresponding to a second phase of flight, by providing respectively first and second transition phases. The aircraft is automatically guided so that it successively captures, follows, and leaves the LLF trajectory section.
