A cargo-loading system and a cargo loading method for the at least semi-automated loading of a cargo hold of an aircraft with Unit Load Devices (ULDs). Drive elements of cargo handling power drive units are here controlled depending on coverage signals from sensors detecting coverage of the cargo handling power drive unit. A missing or lost coverage signal of a first cargo handling power drive unit is compensated by a control logic by requesting a coverage signal of at least one adjacent cargo handling power drive unit which should be covered by a standardized ULD together with the first cargo handling unit and, if such a coverage signal of an adjacent sensor is present, the coverage status of the first cargo handling power drive unit is set to “covered”.
