Abstract


A method for estimating the angle of attack and the angle of sideslip of an aircraft which has a plurality of control surfaces each adjustable with respect to an associated reference surface is devised. The method includes measuring quantities representative of the angle formed by each control surface with respect to the associated reference surface; measuring the effective rolling speed, the effective pitching speed, and effective yawing speed of the aircraft. The estimated AOA and estimated AOS are obtained from the model to use as AOA and AOS of the aircraft.
