METHOD OF PREVENTING COLLISION OF AIRPLANES AND HELICOPTERS WITH TERRAIN FEATURES AND DEVICE BASED ON SAID METHOD Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC G08G5/04 

FIELD: physics, alarm and protection.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to the technology of airplane and helicopter flight safety. The method is characterised by that, inside the safe corridor, protective space is formed with an emergency signaling region and the emergency signaling region is forecast on the length of the safe corridor. If a terrain feature intersects with the safe corridor on both sides of the forecast path, and if a terrain feature intersects with the safe corridor on one side of the forecast path and simultaneously with the forecast emergency signaling region, space is analysed using emergency parametres of the safe corridor and the corresponding forecast path. Safe alternatives of variation of flight parametres are determined, as well as corresponding manoeuvres of the aircraft, which are displayed in a way which suits the pilot in order to select the most efficient one of them from the flight conditions. The device is characterised by that, it includes a unit for forming and forecasting the protective space, an analysis unit, a device for detecting obstacles in alternatives of the forecast flight of the aircraft, device for forming safe corridors of alternatives of the forecast flight, device for determining safe manoeuvres and a matrix display of safe manoeuvres. In accordance with the group of inventions, the space inside the safe corridor is analysed and if necessary beyond its borders and the pilot is given recommendations on possible manoeuvres on coming out of the dangerous situation.

EFFECT: increased safety of flights.
