Research on Collision Avoidance in Terminal Area Based on RNP and 3D Paths

Abstract:

We describes an operational concept in this paper, it enables increased airspace and airport capacity by using the Flight Management System (FMS), Required Navigation Performance capabilities (RNP) and air traffic management automation tools. This concept can be applied to en route and terminal operation. It realizes ground to air communication by using of voice and data chain. This paper analyzes several key performance parameters which affect arrival management process. This concept models the arrivals by using the performance modeling approach. The results of the modeling proves several factors that influence the delivery accuracy and delay in the arrival process ,these factors include the path and speed discretization, wind, trajectory prediction and navigation performance.
