A device for measuring air turbulence in the surroundings of an aircraft includes a measurement system having lidars which are mounted on the aircraft and which are intended to carry out, during a flight of the aircraft, twelve measurements of aerodynamic velocity in the environment surrounding the aircraft. The measurement system carries out the twelve measurements at four different measurement points, each time according to three predetermined axes. A central unit which, with the aid of the aerodynamic velocity measurements and of a first order predetermined mathematical model describing an aerodynamic velocity field as a function of twelve variables, determines an aerodynamic velocity field which exists in the environment of the aircraft and which is representative of the air turbulence.

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of measuring air turbulence in the surroundings of an aircraft, wherein: a) during a flight of the aircraft, twelve measurements of aerodynamic velocity in the environment surrounding said aircraft are carried out, with the aid of lidars which are mounted on the aircraft, said measurements being carried out at four different measurement points, each time according to three predetermined axes; and b) with the aid of said twelve measurements and of a first-order, predetermined mathematical model describing an aerodynamic velocity field as a function of twelve variables, an aerodynamic velocity field which exists in said environment of the aircraft and which is representative of said turbulence of the air is determined. 2. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of said lidars measures at said measurement point three components of an aerodynamic velocity respectively according to said three predetermined axes, by carrying out for each component a measurement of the Doppler effect of a laser beam emitted and backscattered by particles present in a predetermined volume around said measurement point. 3. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein in step a), four of said lidars are used, each of which carries out measurements at one of said four measurement points. 4. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein in step a), three of said lidars are used, two of said lidars carry out each of the measurements at one of said measurement points, and the third of said three lidars carries out measurements at two successive instants during the flight of the aircraft so as to be able thus to carry out measurements at two different measurement points which correspond to the two remaining measurement points. 5. The method as claimed in claim 4, wherein said three of said lidars are respectively arranged on a first front right porthole, a first front left porthole and a wing of the aircraft. 6. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said predetermined axes depend on the aircraft. 7. An aircraft, wherein it comprises a device capable of implementing the method specified under claim 1. 8. A device for measuring air turbulence in the surroundings of an aircraft, wherein it comprises: a measurement system comprising lidars which are mounted on the aircraft and which are intended to carry out during a flight of the aircraft twelve measurements of aerodynamic velocity in the environment surrounding said aircraft, said measurement system carrying out said twelve measurements at four different measurement points, each time according to three predetermined axes; and a central unit which, with the aid of the measurements carried out by said measurement system and of a first-order predetermined mathematical model describing an aerodynamic velocity field as a function of twelve variables, determines an aerodynamic velocity field which exists in said environment of the aircraft, and which is representative of said turbulence of the air. 9. The device as claimed in claim 8, wherein said central unit is mounted on the aircraft and determines the turbulence of the air during the flight of the aircraft. 10. The device as claimed in claim 8, wherein it comprises, moreover, a recording means for recording in a database the measurements carried out by said measurement system, and said central unit determines the turbulence of the air on the ground after a flight, with the aid of the measurements recorded in said database during the flight. 11. The device as claimed in claim 8, wherein said measurement system comprises four of said lidars, each of which carries out measurements at one of said four measurement points. 12. The device as claimed in claim 8, wherein said measurement system comprises three of said lidars, two of said three lidars carry out each of the measurements at one of said measurement points, and the third of said three lidars carries out measurements at two successive instants during the flight of the aircraft so as to be able thus to carry out measurements at two different measurement points which correspond to the two remaining measurement points. 13. The device as claimed in claim 12, wherein said three lidars are respectively arranged on a first front right porthole, a first front left porthole and a wing of the aircraft. 14. An aircraft, wherein it comprises a device such as that specified under claim 8.
