Measuring Sector Complexity: Solution Space-Based Method

Using the Solution Space Diagram in Measuring the Effect of Sector Complexity During Merging Scenarios

When designing Air Traffic Control (ATC) sectors and procedures, traffic complexity and workload are important issues. For predicting ATC workload, metrics based on the Solution Space Diagram (SSD) have been proposed. This paper studies the effect of sector design on workload and SSD metrics. When considering the SSD in evaluation of a sector,...
