Guidance and control of aircraft in the landing phase imposes extra pilot work loads, hence application of automatic landing control systems is of great importance. In this study automatic landing control systems are introduced and an optimal landing control system is designed. The control system performance criteria are based on minimum control effort. The designed system is simulated for a tr...

With the development of modern military ship equipment, airspace operation environment shipboard aircraft is becoming increasingly complex. The objective and accurate evaluation ship-terminal capacity basis air traffic flow management for aircraft, it also premise improving efficiency resources. First all, this paper divides terminal areas realizes route network planning arrival departure aircr...

We study the radar cross section (RCS) property of an aircraft considering electromagnetic (EM) characteristics a frequency selective surface (FSS) radome, mounted on aircraft. Instead full-wave methods, we utilize high-frequency such as shooting and bouncing rays (SBR), physical theory diffraction (PTD), flat model, taking significant computational efficiency. Based developed algorithm, analyz...

To resolve the problem of future airspace management under great traffic flow and high density condition, 4D trajectory estimation has become one of the core technologies of the next new generation air traffic control automation system. According to the flight profile and the dynamics models of different aircraft types under different flight conditions, a hybrid system model that switches the a...

This paper describes a research program with an objective to develop and implement an interactive virtual reality (VR) model of the aircraft inspection maintenance process for asynchronous delivery. Existing approaches have not been able to mimic accurately the complexity of the aircraft maintenance process, reporting limited transfer capabilities and student preparedness for the workplace. Thi...

This paper explores the possibility of applying multi-sensor information fusion technology to the development of smart aircraft. This technology integrates information from multiple sensors and extracts tactical information to detect, track and identify time critical targets at any time, in any place and under all weather conditions. Such target information will help the war fighter avoid fratr...

The purpose of this study is to explore the ranking of international airlines operation cost control strategies based on empirical studies of an international full-service airlines operation in Taiwan. Cost control has become more and more important for airlines in recent years, especially after experiencing a severe increase in crude oil prices and the 2008 serious financial crisis. In this st...

Unmanned aircraft are expected to increase in use in civil applications over the coming years, particularly for the so-called dull, dirty and dangerous missions. Unmanned aircraft will undoubtedly require some form of autonomy in order to ensure safe operations: communications failure could render a completely human-piloted unmanned aircraft dangerous to other airspace users. In order to be use...
