Systems and methods for determining air data parameters

Systems and methods determine at least one air data parameter, such as an angle of attack (AOA), an angle of sideslip (AOS), a total pressure ( p t ), and/or a static pressure ( p s ), from information provided by four pressure sensors (312, 314, 316, 318) coupled to four ports (104, 106, 108, 110)...

Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods determine at least one air data parameter, such as an angle of attack (AOA), an angle of sideslip (AOS), a total pressure ( p t ), and/or a static pressure ( p s ), from information provided by four pressure sensors (312, 314, 316, 318) coupled to four ports (104, 106, 108, 110) on a surface of a vehicle. Each of the ports (104, 106, 108, 110) may be defined by at least a unit vector, wherein the unit vectors are oriented in different planes.
