Abstract
A detector for use on board an aircraft traveling along a path of movement to detect a power line comprises an antenna for sensing the electric field associated with the power line and producing an electric field signal, and a signal processor for receiving the electric field signal and generating a time-to-impact signal representative of the time for the aircraft to reach the power line if it continues on its path of movement. Sensors are used to determine the direction of the power line.
