The analysis and Research of the Runway Conflict Detection System

Abstract

With the increasing volume of air traffic, the workload of controllers’ and pilots’continued to rise which makes the runway incursions grow rapidly and the air safety become more seriously. The runway is one of the most important maneuver area in the aircraft ground movement, as more than half of the aircraft incidences occur during the aircraft takeoff or landing stage, thus enhancing runway safety management is very important, and the research of the runway incursion detection is needed. In order to avoid runway incursions, we studied the runway conflict alerting system which based on the radar detection. This system discussed the runway conflict detection problem from the perspective of the air traffic control. Affecting factors which contain the physical properties of aircraft types, wake turbulence, radar error as well as pilot judgment and reaction time are all taking into consideration. At tht same time, this system analyzed the effect factors of runway incursions. The system used caculation between the invading aircraft and the normal aircraft, at last, it will g ive avoidance suggestions. It can make the crew more efficient. The simulation example shows the effectiveness of the invasion of the runway conflict detection strategies. Keywords-runway; conflict detection; air traffic control; controller; alarm
