Abstract:

To cope with the increasing serious situation of flight conflict, airspace congestion and flight delay in the metropolis and metropolitan areas, the problem of arrival and departure traffic flow collaborative scheduling in multi-airport terminal area is studied. Considering the wake turbulence separation, runway operating separation, time window, airport capacity, and other constraints, the integrated traffic flow scheduling model for arrival and departure is built, in which the concept of flight satisfaction degree is introduced in the multi-dimensional-spatial-temporal perspective. Then an elitist non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) is designed to search for Pareto optimal solutions of the proposed scheduling model in multi-airport terminal area. Simulation results show that the arrival and departure traffic flow scheduling in multi-airport terminal area is optimized using the proposed model which can also reduce the flight delay time, significantly increase the total satisfaction degree of flight, and ensure that the airspace resources in multi-airport terminal area are fairly and evenly used. Compared to the classic strategy of First-Come-First-Served, the integrated scheduling model has more significant effect on the optimization of flights, and the proposed method can reduce the flight delay time to a certain extent.

Key words: air traffic management, multi-airport terminal area, arrival and departure sequencing, multi-runway, multi-objective optimization, flight satisfaction
