Abstract
Disclosed is a method and device for generating a yaw rate command for an aircraft along a ground trajectory. The yaw rate command is generated by determining a current curvature, lateral deviation and angular deviation of the ground trajectory. A yaw rate calculator then calculates a yaw rate and generates the yaw rate command based on the determined current curvature, lateral deviation and angular deviation.
