Abstract In this paper, in-flight remote sensing technologies are considered for two applications: active load alleviation of gust and turbulence and wake impact alleviation. The paper outlines the strong commonalities in terms of sensors and measurement post-processing algorithms and presents also the few differences and their consequences in terms of post-processing. The way the post-processing is being made is detailed before showing results for both applications based on a complete and coupled simulation (aircraft reaction due to disturbances and control inputs during the simulation is influencing the sensor measurements). The performances in terms of wind reconstruction quality for the gust/turbulence case and in terms of wake impact alleviation performance for the wake vortex case are shown based on simulations and are very promising.
