Navigation system allowing real-time coordination of the displacement of mobiles travelling out of direct line of sight
First Claim
1. Navigation system allowing real-time coordination of the displacement of at least two distant mobiles travelling out of direct line of sight, characterized in that it includes a terminal arranged on each mobile respectively, each terminal including:
- a means of location of the mobile,a means of display of its progress with respect to a common reference direction,a means which indicates to the two mobiles a common reference direction and is coupled to the display means,a means of communication of progress data, anda means of processing the information delivered by the means which indicates to the two mobiles the common reference direction, the locating means and the communication means so as to display the information on the display means,and in that at least one of the two mobiles furthermore includes;
a means of display of the progress of the second mobile with respect thereto, anda facility for inputting a specified angle defining a correction to be made to the direction of progress of the second mobile with respect to a new progress of the first mobile, this correction being transmitted to the second mobile by way of the communication means respective to the first and second mobiles.

Abstract
A navigation system having a terminal provided at each mobile station. Each terminal includes a locator for locating a mobile station, a display for displaying its travel relative to the reference direction, an indicator to indicate a common reference direction to both mobile stations with the indicator being coupled to the display, a travel data communicator and a processor to process data from the indicator, the locator and the communicator and display it on the display. At least one of the two mobile stations further includes a display for displaying the travel of the second mobile station relative to the first and an input unit for inputting a predetermined angle for defining how the direction of travel of the second mobile station should be corrected relative to the new direction of travel of the first mobile station. The correction is transmitted to the second mobile station by the travel data communicator of the first and second mobile stations.
