Aircraft Conflict Prediction and Resolution using Brownian Motion'
نویسندگان
چکیده
The probability of conflict between two aircraft is calculated by modeling aircraft motion as a deterministic trajectory plus a (scaled) Brownian motion perturbation. In this formalism, the probability of conflict becomes the probability that a Brownian motion escapes from a time-varying safe region. Approximate expressions for the probability of conflict are obtained in closed form for both the finite and infinite horizon cases. Based on these expressions, an autonomous algcrithm is proposed for decentralized conflict resolution. The algorithm generalizes potential field ideas to path planning in a highly dynamic environment.

متن کاملA probabilistic approach to aircraft conflict detection
In this paper, we concentrate primarily on the detection component of conflict detection and resolution schemes operating at the mid-range and short range level of the air traffic management process. Probabilistic models for mid-term and short term prediction are introduced. Based on the mid-term prediction model, the maximum instantaneous probability of conflict is proposed as criticality meas...
متن کاملSolving the Air Conflict Resolution Problem Under Uncertainty Using an Iterative Biobjective Mixed Integer Programming Approach
In this paper, we tackle the aircraft conflict resolution problem under uncertainties. We consider errors due to the wind effect, the imprecision on the aircraft speed prediction, and the delay in the execution of maneuvers. Using a geometrical approach, we derive an analytical expression for the minimum distance between aircraft, along with the corresponding probability of conflict. These expr...
متن کاملPattern based priority assignment for multi aircraft conflicts in autonomous ATM
Priority rules are one of the most promising approaches to aircraft conflict resolution. This paper deals with the problem of priority assignment in autonomous Air Traffic Management with imperfect trajectory prediction. A robust solution is presented that relies on onboard traffic pattern classification using a data base common to all aircraft. The method allows reaching a common consensus in ...
