Rowntree, Timon (author)
For future operations of unmanned aviation, even higher traffic densities than previously seen in manned aviation are expected. Previous work has shown that a vertically layered airspace design performs best at improving safety metrics such as the total number of conflicts and Losses of Separation (LoSs). Furthermore, it has been shown that...

The expected growth of civil air traffic and the inclusion of advanced systems in the Royal Netherlands Air Force result in more demanding airspace requirements across all users, making this a scarce resource. To optimise its usage, military airspaces in Amsterdam Flight Information Region are used as Flexible Use of...

In order to enable the safe and efficient integration of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles into very low level airspace, modern day research focuses on the development of new traffic services and procedures. One of these is the geovectoring protocol, which aims to reduce traffic complexity by setting limits on the allowed ground speed, course, and...

Cuppen, Daan (author)
To facilitate an increase in air traffic volume and to allow for more flexibility in the flight paths of aircraft, an abundance of decentralized conflict resolution (CR) algorithms have been developed. The efficiency of such algorithms often deteriorates when employed in high traffic densities. Several methods have tried to prioritize certain...

In an effort to increase the operational efficiency in the North Atlantic region, the benefits of a decentralized, wind-optimal routing structure are researched. Such a routing structure allows for direct routing by optimizing trajectories on the individual level. Implementing a tactical conflict detection and resolution method eliminates the...

Aarts, Michiel (author)
The traffic density of small aerial vehicles operating within urban environments is expected to increase significantly in the near future. This urban environment is highly constrained due to being limited to the low-altitude airspace directly above the existing road network. To increase understanding of the factors influencing the capacity of...

Vakaet, Christophe (author)
Taxi time predictions are used by air traffic controllers to optimally release aircraft from the gate such that efficiency losses due to queuing are minimized, while runway capacity is maintained. More accurate taxi times can therefore result in improved airport surface operations and reduce air traffic controller workload. This article proposes...

Voorhoeve, Salomon (author)
The applicability of conflict rate models to controlled, structured, terminal airspace is investigated. A collision rate model is adapted to conflicts between flows of aircraft, and its validity is empirically confirmed. Conflicts are divided into between-flow conflicts and within-flow conflicts. Applicability to a terminal airspace without...

The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of the aviation industry is predicted to be 4.1% from 2015 to 2045 [23].In recent years, however, increasing public pressure has been put on the industry to further reduce noise and carbonemissions. This can be done by eliminating all horizontal flight segments during the approach phase, reducing theaverage...

Kuperus, Thomas (author)
Increased air traffic activity has caused strain on current air traffic management systems. Through decentralization of air traffic control, this strain can be released and airspace capacity, safety and flight efficiency can be increased. The Modified Voltage Potential is a decentralized conflict detection and resolution method based on a force...

Derks, Jeanette (author)
At many airports, the arrival and departure demand often outpaces the available airport capacity. Therefore, the flowof arriving and departing aircraft needs to be controlled to ensure safe and efficient operations. Many airports have been implementing systems that provide electronic assistance for air traffic control in planning and sequencing...

This research presents the derivation, implementation and safety assessment of a velocity obstacle- based conflict resolution method to be used by UAVs flying within a horizontally restricted airspace by a geofence under the presence of wind. Two parameters indicating the safety of the applied conflict resolution method have been measured, i.e.,...

Jacobse, Ruben (author)
The maximum workload for air traffic control officers is a key constraint on the capacity of the airspace system. In the free flight concept air traffic control is removed and aircraft themselves take over its responsibilities. The Modified Voltage Potential (MVP) algorithm is an implementation of this concept. However, its use in the presence...

Data-driven trajectory prediction is one of the key pillars of the future ATM system. Recent research focuses on using novel data sources and machine learning algorithms to improve the performance of 4D trajectory prediction, enabling safer and more efficient routing of aircraft. In this paper a framework for data sourcing and preparation for...

Schaberg, Wouter (author)
In an effort to increase airspace capacity, new methods for the decentralization of air traffic control have been a topic for research since the early nineties. The Modified Voltage Potential is a method to provide decentralized conflict detection and resolution. Through this method, aircraft can fly direct routes while resolving conflicts in a...

The resilience of the Air Traffic Management (ATM) system to disturbances is required to maintain high operation performance. Before it can be improved, the resilience of the ATM system must be quantified. The measurement of resilience requires knowledge of a system reference state. This thesis proposes a novel methodology to detect disruptions...

With the increasing trend in air traffic demand and evidence of large deviations from filed flight plans, airspace capacity is not being optimally utilized. In order to improve air traffic flow and capacity management systems, so that air traffic control operators can handle more aircraft safely, air traffic predictability needs to be improved....

Major delivery companies such as DHL, UPS or Amazon have been developing small drones to deliver packages. This alternative to truck delivery is expected to start operating in the near future. The advantages of it are its speed, price, safety and sustainability: parcels would not be subjected to traffic and they would be delivered within an hour...

Pappie, Gideon (author)
As the amount of air traffic increases every year, the capacity of the current Air Traffic Control (ATC) structure is reaching its limit. Shifting the responsibility of aircraft separation from the ground to aircraft (free flight) eliminates the ATC constraint for aviation growth. Furthermore, free flight allows for direct routing of aircraft....
