Abstract EN
We focus on the spatiotemporal characteristics and their evolvement law of the air traffic flow in airport terminal area to provide scientific basis for optimizing flight control processes and alleviating severe air traffic conditions.
Methods in this work combine mathematical derivation and simulation analysis.
Based on cell transmission model the macroscopic models of arrival and departure air traffic flow in terminal area are established.
Meanwhile, the interrelationship and influential factors of the three characteristic parameters as traffic flux, density, and velocity are presented.
Then according to such models, the macro emergence of traffic flow evolution is emulated with the NetLogo simulation platform, and the correlativity of basic traffic flow parameters is deduced and verified by means of sensitivity analysis.
The results suggest that there are remarkable relations among the three characteristic parameters of the air traffic flow in terminal area.
Moreover, such relationships evolve distinctly with the flight procedures, control separations, and ATC strategies.
