Abstract (en)
The invention relates to a method for an aircraft for handling potential collisions in air traffic, comprising the following steps: a) providing first data of a cooperative first sensor of a cooperative collision avoidance systems CCAS configured to detect a position of one or more cooperative intruders, wherein the CCAS is configured to provide a vertical or horizontal resolution advisory to avoid a collision with these intruders; b) providing second data of a non-cooperative second sensor configured to detect the position of one or more intruders irrespective of whether these are cooperative or non-cooperative intruders; and c) based on first and second data, generating a collision avoid maneuver according to the following principles: - if second data of the non-cooperative second sensor indicates one or more intruders and a vertical or horizontal resolution advisory is provided by CCAS, an avoid maneuver under the constraints of the vertical resolution or horizontal advisory will be performed in order to avoid collision with these intruders; - if second data of the non-cooperative second sensor indicates one or more intruders and no vertical or horizontal resolution advisory is provided by CCAS an avoid maneuver will be performed in order to avoid collision with these intruders; and - if a vertical or horizontal resolution advisory is provided by CCAS and second data of the non-cooperative second sensor indicates no intruders the vertical or horizontal resolution advisory will be followed. A device for an aircraft for handling potential collisions in air traffic is another aspect of the invention.
