Wind Information Requirements to Support Four Dimensional Trajectory-Based Operations

Accurate wind information is required to support some of the key applications envisioned for future air traffic concepts. A Wind Information Analysis Framework is described to assess wind information needs for different applications. The framework is applied in a Four-Dimensional Trajectory Based Operations (4D-TBO) application using simplified versions of the framework’s elements to demonstrat...

An optimization model for assigning 4D-trajectories to flights under the TBO concept

The objective of thispaper is to present a mathematical model that will contribute to the optimization and optimum configuration of the TBO concept. We develop a binary integer programming model whose aim is to assign a 4D-trajectory to each flight in order to optimize the efficiency of the ATM system. The modelconsiders the preferred 4D-trajectory of all the flights in the pre-tactical plannin...

Identification and initial characterization of sources of uncertainty affecting the performance of future trajectory management automation systems

The implementation of the Trajectory Based Operations (TBO) concept in the future ATM system will require the capability of performing accurate and robust trajectory predictions. TBO aims at enabling the efficient management of the expected increasing air traffic volumes strategically, only resorting to tactical interventions as a last resort. To achieve this aim, TBO will rely on Trajectory Ma...

Challenges in Achieving Trajectory-Based Operations

In the past few years much of the global ATM research community has proposed advanced systems based on Trajectory-Based Operations (TBO). The concept of TBO uses four-dimensional aircraft trajectories as the base information for managing safety and capacity. Both the US and European advanced ATM programs call for the sharing of trajectory data across different decision support tools for success...

Impact of ERS Scatterometer Winds in ECMWF’s Assimilation System

The impact of ERS scatterometer winds on the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) three-dimensional variational (3D-Var) and four-dimensional variational (4D-Var) assimilation systems is investigated. ERS scatterometer winds are found to be of consistent high quality in comparison to other surface wind observations. Both 3D-Var and 4D-Var systems assimilate the data well a...
