METHOD OF AIRCRAFT CONTROL IN LANDING APPROACH Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC G05D1/08 G01C21/06 G01S13/91 G08G5/02 B64D45/04 

FIELD: aircraft engineering.

SUBSTANCE: proposed method comprises measurement of aircraft flight parameters, correction or errors in flight parameters from satellite navigation system by known complex data processing procedures, generation of runway bearing on the basis of corrected aircraft coordinates and those of runway ends, runway length, distance to near runway end, aircraft altitude with respect to runway, automatic or manual aircraft control over pitch and roll with due allowance for signals of bearing shift and glide path. Additionally, it comprises setting of landing path inclination angle generation for formation of preset landing path, locating virtual localiser at extension of preset landing path to be located above the point of standard location of localiser so that its bearing and tilt angle are formed. Note here that bearing and glide path shifts are formed as the mismatch between virtual localiser bearing and runway bearing and as mismatch between localiser tilt angle and landing path inclination selected by aircraft crew.

EFFECT: higher safety and reliability of landing.
