Abstract

See full text

A sensor is disposed aboard an aircraft for sensing movement of a passenger boarding bridge during an automated alignment operation. Determinations are made whether the actual sensed movements of the passenger boarding bridge correspond to expected movements of the passenger boarding bridge for a current alignment operation. If the sensed movements do not correspond to the expected movements, then a transmitter aboard the aircraft is used to transmit an anti-collision signal to an automated controller of the passenger boarding bridge.
