DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CALCULATING REQUIRED NAVIGATION PERFORMANCE PREDICTION
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of calculating required navigation performance prediction for a trajectory of an aircraft, the method being operated by an aircraft computing platform and comprising the steps of:
- receiving a list of segments of a flight plan;
for each segment of the list;
identifying all the contingencies constituting navigation performance constraints;
determining and selecting the most constraining contingency for said segment;
calculating a prediction of required navigation performance, as a function of data arising from the selected contingency; and
updating the list of segments with the prediction of required navigation performance associated with each segment.

Abstract
A method is provided for calculating the prediction of required navigation performance for a trajectory associated with a list of segments of a flight plan. A method is also provided for displaying the navigation performance as a corridor trajectory and adapted to guarantee compliance with the navigation performance requirements while offering immediate viewing of the navigation latitude in a corridor.
