Ground-Based Collision Alerting And Avoidance System
US Patent:
2008005, Mar 6, 2008
Filed:
Oct 25, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/977852
Inventors:
Frank Rees - Baltimore MD, US
William Cotton - Austin TX, US
William Cotton - Austin TX, US
Assignee:
Flight Safety Technologies, Inc. - Mystic CT
International Classification:
G01S 13/93
US Classification:
342029000, 340961000, 701301000
Abstract:
A collision alerting and avoidance system is presented herein. The system comprises at least one antenna array disposed on a structure on the ground and at least one transmitter/receiver probe coupled to the antenna array. The transmitter/receiver probe operates in a transmit mode to transmit electromagnetic waves and in a receive mode to receive an echo signal reflected from an obstacle in the area of an aerial vehicle. The system also comprises at least one transmitter/receiver module coupled to the transmitter/receiver probe. The transmitter/receiver module operates in a transmit mode to produce electromagnetic waves for transmission and in a receive mode to receive the echo signal. The system also comprises a processor coupled to the transmitter/receiver module. The processor controls transmission of the electromagnetic waves from the antenna array and processes the echo signal to provide an output signal containing information regarding the obstacle.
Aircraft Wake Safety Management System
US Patent:
2008003, Feb 7, 2008
Filed:
Jun 27, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/823764
Inventors:
William Cotton - Lakeway TX, US
Neal Fine - North Kingstown RI, US
Neal Fine - North Kingstown RI, US
Assignee:
Flight Safety Technologies, Inc. - Mystic CT
International Classification:
G06F 19/00, G01W 1/00, G08B 21/00
US Classification:
340945000, 701120000, 07317800T
Abstract:
The disclosure is directed toward a method for safely managing aircraft separation. The method comprises a data integration host configured for: receiving aircraft information from a first aircraft; receiving weather data from a weather monitoring system; combining the aircraft information of the first aircraft with the weather data; formulating a position prediction of a wake vortex located within a critical safety volume of a runway; receiving from a sensor real time wake vortex data in a path of the first aircraft; comparing the real time wake vortex data to the position prediction to validate the position prediction and to formulate a determination of whether the wake vortex is present in the critical safety volume; and utilizing the determination to transmit spacing data to air traffic control, wherein the spacing data is at least one of standard wake vortex spacing and minimum radar spacing.
Collision Alerting And Avoidance System
US Patent:
7443334, Oct 28, 2008
Filed:
Sep 10, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/900336
Inventors:

William B. Cotton - Austin TX, US
International Classification:
G01S 13/93
US Classification:
342 29, 342 36, 342 57, 342 58, 342175, 701301, 340961
Abstract:
A collision alerting and avoidance system for use in an aerial vehicle is presented herein. The system comprises a one low profile antenna array disposed on the aerial vehicle. A transmitter/receiver probe is coupled to the antenna array. The transmitter/receiver probe is configured to transmit electromagnetic waves and to receive an echo signal reflected from a threat obstacle. At least one transmitter/receiver module is coupled to the transmitter/receiver probe. The transmitter/receiver module is configured to produce electromagnetic waves for transmission and to receive the echo signal. A processor coupled to the plurality of transmitter/receiver modules controls the transmission of electromagnetic waves from the antenna array and processes the echo signal to provide an output signal containing information regarding the obstacle.
