Assignee: HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC.
Field: Measurement (Instruments)
Classification: CPC G  B | IPC G

Claim 11:
12. The system of claim 10, wherein:
the relative vertical acceleration is sent from the first subtractor to an integrator, which integrates the relative vertical acceleration to obtain a corresponding integrated vertical velocity that is sent to the consistency check module;
the relative vertical velocity is sent from the second subtractor to the consistency check module;
wherein the consistency check module is operative to perform a first consistency check to confirm that the relative vertical acceleration is non-zero, the first consistency check performed between the corresponding integrated vertical velocity and the relative vertical velocity;
wherein if the first consistency check is passed, then the non-zero relative vertical acceleration is directed by the adaptable input switches to the third order loop;
wherein if the first consistency check fails, then the relative vertical velocity is passed to a second consistency check to confirm that the relative vertical velocity is non-zero;
wherein if the second consistency check passes, then the relative vertical velocity is directed by the adaptable input switches to the third order loop;
wherein if all the consistency checks fail, then a zero relative vertical acceleration is input to the third order loop.
