A method for calculating an optimal wheel position control angle of passenger boarding bridge automatic docking system includes collecting ranging information of a sensor to rotate the bridgehead direction via a distance measuring sensor on both sides of the bridgehead of the passenger boarding bridge, making the bridgehead parallel to the aircraft fuselage; collecting information of an aircraft door by a camera at the bridge head of the passenger boarding bridge to obtain a center position D of the aircraft door; in an ideal docking situation, the aircraft door should appear at the bridge head position as D&#x2033;; the position where D&#x2033; is projected vertically onto the aircraft fuselage is D', that is, the line segment DD&#x2032; is the horizontal distance deviation between the current passenger boarding bridge and the aircraft door, the line segment D&#x2032;D&#x2033; is the distance between the current boarding bridge and the aircraft fuselage.
