In order to relieve the congestions and delays at multi-airport system in metroplex region, an optimized method for collaborative arrival sequencing and scheduling in metroplex terminal area is proposed in this work. By analyzing deeply the spatio-temporal characteristics of metroplex terminal area and taking into consideration control handoff separation, wake turbulence separation and multi-runway operating separation, an optimized model for collaborative arrival sequencing and scheduling in metroplex terminal area is established to balance scientifically different parties in interest such as safety, economy and fairness with the introduction of innovative idea of multi-restricted time window. An elitist non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm is designed combined with the multi-objective optimization theory and applied to solving the problem of multi-airport arrival sequencing and scheduling to search for the Pareto optimal solutions. Simulation results show that the above model and algorithm can achieve optimized sequencing and scheduling for arrivals in metroplex terminal area, remarkably reducing the flight delays, and effectively enhancing the fairness of using the common airspace resources in multi-airport system. Compared with the classical strategy of first-come-first-served (FCFS), the optimized one brings about a striking effect which results in a 31.0% reduction in flight delays. The proposed method can significantly relieve the flight delays of arrivals at multi-airport system in metroplex region and effectively improve the service quality of air transportation.
