This paper describes an intelligent communication and decision support system for providing wireless services in an airport environment. A novel agent-based business model is proposed and the value chain is analysed for wireless applications. This system is studied and developed within the scope of the IST ADAMANT project, where the Athens International Airport (AIA) is used as the trial enviro...

In this paper we present a Digital Boarding Assistance (DigiBa) system for passengers in airport terminals. By providing navigation, notification and information services, passengers are enabled to move efficiently through the terminal. Based on functional requirements of such a system, the paper presents a prototype implementation on an embedded mobile device with restricted resources. Challen...

An efficient handling of passengers is essential for reliable terminal processes. Since the entire progress of terminal handling depends on the individual behavior of the passengers, a valid and calibrated agent-based model allows for a detailed evaluation of system performance and for identifying optimization capabilities. Our model is based on a stochastic approach for passenger movements inc...

This research forecasts the growth of air traffic in one of int’l airport.. It actually estimates the growth of air traffic with the trend model, and then the growth is forecasted by monthly air traffic and time series data. To estimate the coefficient of the model in general econometric methods use the time series data, it is suggested that the data should be stationary, otherwise false regres...

background: noise is one of the harmful factors of industrial environments that may cause defect such as hearing defects, high blood pressure, irritation, sleep disturbances, increased respiratory rate and oxygen consumption. the residents and personnel working in industries around mehrabad airport continuously exposed to noise pollution caused by the traffic of passenger, war and training airp...

Advanced air mobility (AAM) is a broad concept enabling consumers access to on-demand mobility, cargo and package delivery, healthcare applications, emergency services through an integrated connected multimodal transportation network. However, number of challenges could impact AAM’s growth potential, such as autonomous flight, the availability take-off landing infrastructure (i.e., vertiports),...

Passenger screening at aviation security checkpoints is a critical component in protecting airports and aircraft from terrorist threats. Recent developments in technology have increased the ability to detect these threats. However, the average amount of time it takes to screen a passenger still remains a concern. This paper models the queueing process for a multilevel airport checkpoint securit...

The need for greater airport security has recently led to major changes in passenger screening procedures. One important change is the development of a computer-assisted passenger pre-screening system (CAPPS II), a tool to select passengers for screening which is currently being considered for implementation. When boarding cards are issued, CAPPS confirms passengers’ identities, performs crimin...
