Abstract:

Current air traffic flow management focuses mainly on making air traffic flow control measures, such as miles in trail, air holding, but lacks strategic consideration of the global operation law of the air traffic flow, air traffic flow delays formation and propagation, and holistic resolution programs. The air transportation network is a complicated network system, and it is necessary to study air traffic flow using complex network theories. The topological structure of the air traffic flow network is analyzed, such as degree, degree distribution, weight, weight distribution, flow, capacity and delay. The method for evaluating air traffic flow network efficiency is then proposed, and the invulnerability of the air traffic flow network is analyzed using selective attack and random attack. The model for air traffic delay propagation is established based on the similarity between the load capacity cascading failure model and the virus propagation model, and air traffic delay propagation. The research on the air traffic flow network structure and delay propagation are validated using a large number of actual data. The research can provide decision support for large scale air traffic flow management.

Key words: air traffic control, air traffic flow management, delay propagation, complex network, network property
