Con ict Resolution for Air Tra c Management : a Study in Multi - Agent Hybrid Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Air Traac Management (ATM) of the future allows for the possibility of free ight, in which aircraft choose their own optimal routes, altitudes, and velocities. The safe and fair resolution of trajectory connicts between aircraft is necessary to the success of such a distributed control system. In this paper, we propose a method to synthesize provably safe connict resolution maneuvers. The method models the aircraft and the maneuver as a nonlinear hybrid system, and calculates the maximal set of safe initial conditions for each aircraft, so that separation is assured in the presence of uncertainties in the actions of the other aircraft. Examples of maneuvers using both speed and heading changes are worked out in detail.

An essential element in the Free Flight concept is the detection and avoidance of air tra c con icts. A con ict occurs when the required separation between two aircraft, namely the ownship and the intruder, is lost. Con ict detection and resolution systems predict loss of separation and output con ict avoidance maneuvers that divert the ownship from its original trajectory. In this paper, we ad...

This paper describes the design of a con ict detection and resolution tool, referred to as a Con ict Probe, for use by enroute (Center) air tra c controllers. This tool is designed to help detect and resolve all classes of con icts, such as over ight/over ight, arrival/over ight, climbout/over ight, etc., up to twenty minutes in advance. The design is based on an approach that combines determin...

This paper considers the problem of intersecting aircraft ows under decentralized con ict avoidance rules. Using an Eulerian standpoint (aircraft ow through a xed control volume), new air tra c control models and scenarios are de ned that enable the study of long-term airspace stability problems. Considering a class of two intersecting aircraft ows, it is shown that airspace stability, de ned b...

We explore the use of distributed on-line motion planning algorithms for multiple mobile agents, in Air Traf-c Management Systems (ATMS). The work is motivated by current trends in ATMS to move towards decentralized air traac management, in which the aircraft operate in \free ight" mode instead of following prespeciied \sky freeways". Connict resolution strategies are an integral part of the fr...
