Queueing Models for Operations in NextGen
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper develops a queueing model for trajectorybased aircraft operations, expected to take place in the Next Generation Air Transportation System. Aircraft are assigned scheduled times of arrival at a server, which they meet with some normally distributed stochastic error. A recursive queueing model is formulated, and Clark's approximation method is employed to estimate each flight’s expected queueing delay. The model is further developed to account for aircraft’s runway occupancy time, and to track any aircraft’s delay through a network of servers. Keywords-queue; aircraft; NextGen; 4D operations

Queueing Models for 4D Trajectory-Based Aircraft Operations in NextGen
This paper develops a queueing model for aircraft landings at a single runway under trajectory-based flight operations. The situation is expected to arise in the Next Generation Air Transportation System. Aircraft are assigned scheduled times of arrival, which they meet with some stochastic error. It is assumed that errors are small enough for scheduled order to be maintained, and they follow a...
متن کاملUse of Queuing Models to Estimate Delay Savings from 4D Trajectory Precision
The potential benefit from introducing trajectory based operations into the NAS is estimated in this paper. Delay predictions of a stochastic and a deterministic queuing model, which represent high and low levels of trajectory uncertainty, are compared. It is found that delay savings are on the order of 35% in the average case, Delay predictions from the various models are found to be strongly ...
متن کاملEmergency Location Problems with an M/G/k Queueing System
Since late 1960's, the emergency location problems, fire stations and medical emergency services have attracted the attention of researchers. Mathematical models, both deterministic and probabilistic, have been proposed and applied to find suitable locations for such facilities in many urban and rural areas. Here, we review some models proposed for finding the location of such facilities, wit...
متن کاملExtending Validated Human Performance Models to Evaluate NextGen Concepts
To meet the expected increases in air traffic demands, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) are researching and developing Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) concepts. NextGen will require substantial increases to the data available to pilots on the flight deck (e.g., wake projections) to support more precise and...
متن کاملClimb Trajectory Prediction Software Validation for Decision Support Tools and Simulation Models
The Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) is the solution to capacity, safety, and efficiency problems that will result from an expected increase in traffic. Trajectory-based operations are identified in the NextGen Concept of Operations as a key capability required to ensure the success of NextGen; thus, it is essential that the accuracy of trajectory prediction software be teste...
