Network Congestion Control of Airport Surface Operations
This paper presents a novel approach to managing the aircraft taxi-out process at airports, by posing the problem in a network congestion control framework. A network model of the airport surface with stochastic link travel times is first developed. The model parameters for Boston Logan International Airport are estimated using empirical data from a surface surveillance system. Using the entry ...
متن کاملInternalization of Airport Congestion: A Network Analysis
The theory developed in this paper, which generalizes the analysis of Brueckner (2002), establishes a simple rule for the computation of airport congestion tolls, reflecting the internalization of congestion. The analysis shows that the toll paid by a carrier should equal the congestion damage from an extra flight times one minus the carrier’s airport flight share. When this flight share is lar...
متن کاملAn Integrated Scheduling and Operations Approach to Airport Congestion Mitigation
Most flight delays are created by imbalances between demand and capacity at the busiest airports. Absent large increases in capacity, airport congestion can only be mitigated through scheduling interventions or improved capacity utilization. This paper presents an integrated approach that jointly optimizes the airport’s flight schedule at the strategic level and the utilization of airport capac...
متن کاملAirport Characterization for the Adaptation of Surface Congestion Management Approaches
Surface congestion management has received increased attention worldwide, largely due to its potential to mitigate operational inefficiencies and environmental impact. Most prior efforts have focused on demonstrations of a proposed congestion management approach at a particular airport, and not on the adaptation of a particular approach to a range of airport operating environments. This paper p...
متن کاملDemonstration of Reduced Airport Congestion through Pushback Rate Control
Airport surface congestion results in significant increases in taxi times, fuel burn and emissions at major airports. This paper describes the field tests of a congestion control strategy at Boston Logan International Airport. The approach determines a suggested rate to meter pushbacks from the gate, in order to prevent the airport surface from entering congested states and to reduce the time t...
