Runway Safety: Technologies for Debris Detection

نویسنده

  • John Spriggs
چکیده

Of course, debris detection is important throughout the manoeuvring areas of an airport, not just the runway. We have chosen to concentrate on the active runway because that presents the most demanding environment, from both the physical and regulatory viewpoints. For example, there can be severe acoustic vibration and the sensor mountings must be less than ninety centimetres tall; both of which make debris detection and location more difficult.

Application of Wavelet Analysis in Detecting Runway Foreign Object Debris

Foreign Object Debris (FOD) is dangerous for aircraft safety. And it can be suggested to use image processing technology on the FOD’s detection. Depending on image processing system, a major sub-system in FOD detecting system on the runway, FOD image will be observed efficiently and rapidly with few economy costs and highly accuracy and reliability. The paper analyses the characteristics and pr...

A Note on Runway Capacity Definition and Safety

The following is a discussion on the different aspects of the term capacity as well as a brief look at the commonly used capacity definitions in industrial and operations engineering in general and in Civil Aviation in particular. We maintain that quality factors (including more specifically here, safety) must be explicitly considered in runway capacity definition, and accordingly, we provide a...

Route-Based Detection of Conflicting ATC Clearances on Airports

Runway incursions are among the most serious safety concerns in air traffic control. Traditional A-SMGCS level 2 safety systems detect runway incursions with the help of surveillance information only. In the context of SESAR, complementary safety systems are emerging that also use other information in addition to surveillance, and that aim at warning about potential runway incursions at earlier...

A Model for Runway Landing Flow and Capacity with Risk and Cost Benefit Factors

As the demand for the civil aviation has been growing for decades and the system becoming increasingly complex, the use of systems engineering and operations research tools have shown to be of further use in managing this system. In this study, we apply such tools in managing landing operations on runways (as the bottleneck and highly valuable resources of air transportation networks) to handle...

Runway incursion alert using knowledge rules

A runway incursion is a situation where two or more aircraft or vehicles occupy one runway simultaneously and as such create a potentially dangerous situation. We can think of many situations where two aircraft/vehicles occupy the same runway simultaneously, but do not cause a conflicting situation, e.g. two taxiing aircraft on a closed runway or a departing aircraft lining up behind a landing ...
