The invention concerns a method and a device for measuring air turbulence in the surroundings of an aircraft. The device (1) comprises a measuring system (2) including lidars (L1, L2, L3, L4) which are mounted on the aircraft and which are designed to produce during the flight of the aircraft twelve air speed measurements in the surroundings outside the aircraft, said measuring system (2) producing said twelve measurements in four different measuring points, each time along three predetermined axes, and a central unit (3), which, by means of the measurements produced by said measuring system (2) and a predetermined mathematical model of the first order describing a field of air speeds based on twelve variables, determines a field of air speeds which exist in said aircraft surroundings, and which represents said air turbulence.

Procédé et dispositif de mesure de la turbulence de l'air dans l'environnement d'un aéronef. Le dispositif (1) comporte un système de mesure (2) comprenant des lidars (L1, L2, L3, L4) qui sont montés sur l'aéronef et qui sont destinés à réaliser lors d'un vol de l'aéronef douze mesures de vitesse aérodynamique dans l'environnement extérieur dudit aéronef, ledit système de mesure (2) réalisant lesdites douze mesures en quatre points de mesure différents, à chaque fois selon trois axes prédéterminés, et une unité centrale (3) qui, à l'aide des mesures réalisées par ledit système de mesure (2) et d'un modèle mathématique prédéterminé du premier ordre décrivant un champ de vitesses aérodynamiques en fonction de douze variables, détermine un champ de vitesses aérodynamiques qui existe dans ledit environnement de l'aéronef, et qui est représentatif de ladite turbulence de l'air.
