ABSTRACT:
Signals from warning systems are passed to a hazard prioritization computer. The prioritization computer also receives inputs from the aircraft's air data and inertial reference system. The alert prioritization computer includes three functional modules: (1) hazard detection, identification and monitoring, (2) threat assessment and (3) display and alert prioritization logic. The hazard prioritization computer processes the warning system signals, along with stored data from a hazard database to compute a severity component of threat and a proximity component of threat. These two components are processed to produce an overall threat value for each hazard. This overall threat value is then processed to provide alert and display generation and prioritization for the flight crew and/or the aircraft's auto-flight system.
