Abstract

In this paper, trajectory optimisation algorithms developed specifically for the Global Navigation satellite System (GNSS) Avionics-Based Integrity Augmentation (ABIA) system are presented. The ABIA system is designed to increase the levels of integrity and accuracy (as well as continuity in multi-sensor data fusion architectures) of GNSS in a variety of mission- and safetycritical aviation applications. The trajectory optimisation algorithms can be employed both for flight planning as well as realtime optimisation of manned and unmanned aircraft for all flight phases. Three and six Degrees-of-Freedom (3-DoF/6-DoF) aircraft dynamics models are adopted to generate a number of feasible flight trajectories that also satisfy the GNSS constraints. A detailed simulation case study is presented to evaluate the performance of trajectory optimisation algorithms for GNSS integrity augmentation using an AIRBUS A320 3-DoF aircraft dynamics model. Results confirm that the employed trajectory optimisation algorithms are capable of supporting high-integrity tasks when GNSS is used as the primary source of navigation data.
