This paper presents a novel Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Avionics Based Integrity Augmentation (ABIA) system architecture suitable for civil and military air platforms, including Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS). Taking the move from previous research on high-accuracy Differential GNSS (DGNSS) systems design, integration and experimental flight test activities conducted at the Itali...

In this article we present a model of some functions and activities of the Brazilian Air traffic Control System (ATS) in the period in which occurred a mid-air collision between flight GLO1907, a commercial aircraft Boeing 737-800, and flight N600XL, an executive jet EMBRAER E-145, to investigate key resilience characteristics of the ATM. Modeling in some detail activities during the collision ...

The limited efficiency of current air traffic systems will require a next-generation of Smart Air Traffic System (SATS) that relies on current technological advances. This challenge means a transition toward a new navigation and air-traffic procedures paradigm, where pilots and air traffic controllers perform and coordinate their activities according to new roles and technological supports. The...

With the continuous development of the industrialization process, the countries all over the world gradually appeared lack of agricultural labor force and aging phenomenon, which was especially prominent in developed countries. However the agricultural robot with high operating efficiency, high qualities of work will play an increasingly important role in future agricultural production. Robot n...

This article would study batch and recursive methods that used in terrain navigation systems. Terrain navigation has a lot ofdisadvantages and so researchers have been studied on different method of aided navigation for many years. Therefore, more types of aided navigation systems were introduced with advantages and disadvantages in terms of practical and theoretical. One of the main ideas for ...

AMCP was requested by the Air Navigation Commission to undertake the activities as per part of a) and b) of this recommendation with regard to air-ground digital links while taking due account of the work carried out by other ICAO bodies. Further work, as requested in parts c) and d) of this recommendation, was deferred until the results of the assessment and the overview of performance charact...

Four-Dimensional (4D) Trajectory-Based Operations (TBO) is a key component of the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen), integrating an aircraft’s navigation capability in space and time to improve efficiency and predictability in the Air Traffic Management (ATM) system. NextGen envisions that ATM will require the widespread implementation of 4D Trajectories (4DT) in all phases of...
