Genetic search techniques constitute an optimization methodology effective for solving discontinuous, non-convex, nonlinear, or non-analytic problems. This paper explores the application of such techniques to a non-analytic event-related air traffic control problem, that of runway assignment, sequencing, and scheduling of arrival flights at an airport with multiple runways. Several genetic sear...

One of the facilities that support air transportation is airport. The airport functions as a node for aircraft movements, passengers are one important infrastructures can be expected to accelerate improvement community's economy. runway infrastructure in This study aims plan pavement thickness at Minangkabau International Airport up 20 years. used FAA method, namely FAARFIELD application. With ...

The FAA is conducting evaluations of Precision Runway Monitoring (PRM) surveillance techniques. This paper describes the evaluation results of the Multilateration/ADS-B system trials conducted at Atlanta-Hartsfield International Airport (ATL) in 1997. The performance of Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) position multilateration of aircraft Mode S and Mode A/C transmissions was evaluated, in add...

The paper presents an agent based framework for control of conflict-free scheduling and spacing of airport arrival and approach traffic. The proposed tool incorporates a multi-agent conflict-resolution algorithm that guarantees to arriving aircraft safe approach trajectories, and a dynamic prioritization mechanism that aids in efficient utilization of the available airspace and arrivals runway ...

The present paper focuses on the development of an algorithm for safely and optimally managing the routing of aircraft on an airport surface in future airport operations. This tool is intended to support air traffic controllers’ decision-making in selecting the paths of all aircraft and the engine startup approval time for departing ones. Optimal routes are sought for minimizing the time both a...

Due to an anticipated increase in air traffic during the next decade, air traffic control in busy airports is one of the main challenges confronting the controllers in the near future. Since the runway is often a bottleneck in an airport system, there is a great interest in optimizing the use of the runway. The most important factors in aircraft landing modeling are time and cost. For this reas...
