A prediction device for prediction on the ground of characteristics of the position of an aircraft along a path is provided. The prediction device comprises a calculation element comprising a performance and integrity model consistent with a model on board an aircraft. The second calculation element determines precision, integrity and availability information concerning the position of the aircraft along a flight and/or ground path. The integrity information taking account of an integrity of a satellite positioning system and at least one hardware integrity on board the aircraft.

The device according to claim 1, wherein said second calculation element comprises a satellite masking model, and determines and supplies an indication of visible satellites along the path, with the aid of terrain information and information concerning satellites of the satellite positioning system. 6. The device according to claim 1, further comprising an external interface. 7. The device according to claim 1, further comprising a means that triggers an alarm in the event of said navigation system error being exceeded by said maximum of at least the HILSIS, the HILH/W1, and the HILH/W2. 8. The device according to claim 1, wherein said first calculation element also comprises an environmental model. 9. The device according to claim 1, wherein a prediction of the aircraft position and of a position protection radii, illustrating the integrity, is calculated with the aid of the following expressions: X(k+1)=F[Xm(k),X(k)]Xm(k)=G[E(U(k)),M(U(k))]wherein:k is an iteration;X is the position of the aircraft;U represents a state vector used at the current moment at the input of the prediction calculation, covering the dynamic state of the aircraft and its environment;G represents a modelling function of masking M and sensor errors E, used at the input of the prediction of the position and of the protection radii; andF represents an iterative processing of calculation for aircraft position prediction and position protection radii. 10. The device according to claim 1, wherein a global protection radius illustrating the integrity is calculated as a maximum at least of the following radii: a protection radius incorporating signal failures in space;a protection radius incorporating a hardware failure of a position calculator; anda protection radius incorporating a hardware failure of a satellite signal receiver. 11. The device according to claim 1, wherein an estimate of a guidance error is added to a navigation error of an estimated position of the aircraft. 12.
