YANG, X. (author), Sun, Junzi (author), Rajan, R.T. (author)Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast (ADS-B) is a surveillance technology that is used extensively in Air Traffic Control (ATC) applications. Aircraft equipped with ADS-B transponders actively broadcast navigation information such as position, altitude, and velocity, and thus ATC is able to track aircraft continuously, even in regions...conference paper 2022

Sun, Junzi (author), Olive, Xavier (author), Delahaye, Daniel (author)Inefficiencies in flight operations, like deviations and non-optimal flight speed or altitude, are directly linked to flight emission inefficiencies. Quantifying these emission inefficiencies and studying potential mitigation strategies is certainly beneficial for the sustainability of the aviation industry. In this paper, we analyze emission...conference paper 2022
