CA 2394990

The invention concerns the observation of security distance between aircraft flying, in line, one behind the other, in an imposed air corridor. More particularly, it concerns a method enabling an aircraft knowing its position and those of other aircraft flying in close proximity, for example with a ADS-B system, to manage by itself its separating distance relative to another aircraft used as reference. Such a method provides assistance to the aircraft crew and the flight control authority for regulating traffic in the corridor concerned.

L'invention concerne le respect des distances de sécurité entre des aéronefs parcourant, en file, l'un derrière l'autre, un couloir aérien imposé. Elle est relative, plus particulièrement à un procédé permettant à un aéronef connaissant sa position et celles des aéronefs évoluant dans son environnement proche, par exemple grâce au système ADS-B, de gérer par lui-même sa distance de séparation par rapport à un autre aéronef pris pour référence. Un tel procédé est une aide apportée à l'équipage d'un aéronef et è l'autorité de contrôle assurant la régulation du trafic dans le couloir aérien considéré.
