Zusammenfassung: | Separation distances between a platform and an air or weather anomaly such as a wake vortex are obtained. Airspeeds of the air or weather anomalies are detected. Maximum airspeeds determined from different detection paths may result one or more airspeed differentials. The one or more airspeed differentials may be used to determine a calculated separation distance. A position of the platform may be maintained or maneuvered relative to the air or weather anomaly based on the calculated separation distance. Control commands may be output to a vehicle control system to perform, direct, or display a navigational solution including maneuvering relative to the air or weather anomaly, where the vehicle control system may include a graphics controller, a flight control system, a flight management system, or an autopilot. |
