APPARATUS AND A METHOD FOR DETERMINING A RESOURCE REMAINING DATUM OF AN ELECTRIC AIRCRAFT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17824382 titled 'APPARATUS AND A METHOD FOR DETERMINING A RESOURCE REMAINING DATUM OF AN ELECTRIC AIRCRAFT

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an apparatus for determining the remaining energy of a battery in an electric aircraft.

  • The apparatus includes a processor and memory connected to the processor.
  • The processor receives data from a sensing device that measures parameters of the battery pack.
  • The sensing device generates aircraft data based on these parameters.
  • The processor then determines a reserve energy based on the flight mode of the aircraft.
  • Using the aircraft data and reserve energy, the processor calculates a resource remaining datum, which indicates the remaining energy of the battery pack.


Original Abstract Submitted

An apparatus for determining a resource remaining datum of an electric aircraft is disclosed. The apparatus includes a processor and a memory communicatively connected to the processor. The memory contains instructions configuring the processor to receive aircraft data from at least a sensing device, wherein the at least a sensing device is configured to measure at least a parameter of a battery pack of the electric aircraft and generate aircraft data as a function of the at least a parameter of the battery pack of the electric aircraft. The memory contains instructions configuring the processor to determine a reserve energy as a function of a flight mode of the electric aircraft and determine a resource remaining datum as a function of the aircraft data and the reserve energy, wherein the resource remaining datum is related to the battery pack of the electric aircraft.
