air traffic flows

1 March 2022

Compared to the inflexible specification of routes in the air traffic system, the implementation of the free-routes concept allows the implementation of individual trajectories. It is to be expected that this will lead to a ( punctual) increase in the workload of the controllers, especially in airspaces with high heterogeneity of traffic. Considering this, a model is to be developed and exemplarily implemented, which aggregates and adjusts provided flight trajectories in a suitable way.

efficiency assessment in European ATM

We used different types of Data Envelopment Analysis to evaluate and compare the performance of European ANSPs and to develop and suggest an appropriate benchmarking approach.

time-varying queuing network for ASEAN free-route airspace

A time-varying queuing network was modeled and applied to ASEAN free-route airspace. The model shows a 45% reduction in potential conflicts.

introduction of moving sectors

Moving sectors are introduced to improve airspace management by efficiently aligning traffic flows and grouping flights using realistic traffic patterns from the Singapore FIR.

Flow-centric air traffic control

Creating traffic flows that minimize congestion (hot spots) and enable flow-centric operations is important for future air traffic control.
