Estimate of Dynamic Sector Capacity Considering Hazardous Weather

Abstract:

During the course of flight, we need to estimate regional sector dynamic capacity in order to assure the safety and efficiency of operation. Subjected to the controller workload and the decrease of CNS performance under the hazardous weather, and the controller workload is related to the degree of hazardous weather at the same time, the capacity on a route changing over time, the capacity of the associated sectors will also change. This paper, based on existing research, assumes a Poisson distribution flight arrival flow trends and hazardous weather in the coming period is known. It establishes a nonlinear programming model considering hazardous weather, controller workload and longitudinal interval between aircrafts innovatively, and then uses Matlab to solve the model. The results show that the model is feasible.
