چکیده

The rational flight landing sequence has very important influence on the service of airlines, airports and air traffic controller. The discrete optimization problem can be seen as one machine scheduling problem with distinct starting and finishing time and the objective: the minimization of tardy flight problem. Because of this NP-hard complexity, ant colony optimization (ACO) is utilized to solve it. Firstly the formulation is proposed, then a transition probability and 2-opt local search strategy is defined. After the pheromone is updated according to the quality of solutions, the efficient solution will be achieved. Finally, an instance of flight landing sequence is demonstrated to compare ACO’s better performance with traditional FCFS.

Abnormality Detection in a Landing Operation Using Hidden Markov Model

The air transport industry is seeking to manage risks in air travels. Its main objective is to detect abnormal behaviors in various flight conditions. The current methods have some limitations and are based on studying the risks and measuring the effective parameters. These parameters do not remove the dependency of a flight process on the time and human decisions. In this paper, we used an HMM...
