A Decentralized Recovery Method for Air Traffic Conflicts

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...

Multi-aircraft Conflict Resolution using Velocity Obstacles

Currently, Air Traffic Control is responsible for the separation of air traffic in our limited airspace. To facilitate the continuing growth of air traffic, an ambitious plan is to give the responsibility of the separation task to the pilots of the aircraft. The behavior of existing conflict resolution methods within this decentralized approach...
