COMPLEX SYSTEM OF PREPARATION, NAVIGATION, AND CONTROL OF AERIAL VEHICLE Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC G01C23/00 

FIELD: aviation.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers the area of aviation instrument engineering and may be used in complexes of flight control and navigation equipment of an aerial vehicle (AV). For such purpose, the complex system of preparation, navigation, and control of an aerial vehicle including the ground system of flight assignment preparation (SFAP) for AV and the onboard navigation complex (NC) of AV, the connection between which is performed by means of a portable data storage (PDS) of a universal flash-drive type, moreover, SFAP consists of the a universal data recording device to PDS and universal interface devices connected via inputs/outputs to an electronic unit, and NC consists of a data reading device from PDS, a set of multifunctional indicators, a set of flight control and navigation systems, an onboard radio-technical communication system, and an onboard digital computing system (ODCS), which distinguishes by the fact that a computing logical functional module (CLFM) of formation of an arbitrary trajectory (AT) graphical projection and CLFM of decomposition of an AT graphical projection to several straight-line microtrajectories (SMT) are additionally introduced into the electronic unit, and the second CLFM of decomposition of an AT graphical projection is additionally included into ODCS. All these systems are interconnected via the traffic channel (TC). Whereupon, interconnection points of SMT during a flight along AT are used in the system as navigation point equivalent by their properties to "standard" navigation points of the main flight route. The introduction of additional units provides the extension of functional capabilities of the system and, consequently, of AV by means of the increasing of process automation rate of AV control during a flight along an arbitrary trajectory.

EFFECT: invention allows extending of functional capabilities of an aerial vehicle.
