“…Should it become impossible to safely continue operations, a breakout or escape maneuver must be flown. In recent flight deck and ATC Paired Approach HITL simulations, pilots and controllers found the concept to be generally feasible and operationally acceptable [9].…”

“…For a capacity-constrained Top 35 airport, IM is one of three NextGen components in the overall arrival flow management system. The first component, Time-based Flow Management (TBFM) (which includes Terminal Sequencing And Spacing [TSAS] 9 , Extended Metering, and Coupled Scheduling), manages the overall plan for aircraft arrivals to the airport facility. This includes runway assignments, an arrival schedule to the runway, and the associated schedule at the upstream points.…”

Interval Management is a suite of ADS-B-enabled applications that allows the air traffic controller to instruct a flight crew to achieve and maintain a desired spacing relative to another aircraft. The flight crew, assisted by automation, manages the speed of their aircraft to deliver more precise inter-aircraft spacing than is otherwise possible, which increases traffic throughput at the same or higher levels of safety. Interval Management has evolved from a long history of research and is now seen as a core NextGen capability. With avionics standards recently published, completion of an Investment Analysis Readiness Decision by the FAA, and multiple flight tests planned, Interval Management will soon be part of everyday use in the National Airspace System. Second generation, Advanced Interval Management capabilities are being planned to provide a wider range of operations and improved performance and benefits. This paper briefly reviews the evolution of Interval Management and describes current development and deployment plans. It also reviews concepts under development as the next generation of applications.

“…The same slip angle procedure can be implemented for the aligned CSPR with the high accuracy features of satellite-based navigation. In the case of San Francisco Airport in the United States, the 150 m spaced CSPR capacity was approximately doubled by the simultaneous closed parallel PRM (Precision Runway Monitor surveillance system) approach [17]. However, this method requires high weather standards and navigation facilities.…”

The effect of crosswinds on paired approach (PA) procedures for Closely Spaced Parallel Runways (CSPR) is investigated in this paper by fully utilizing the crosswind environment to implement a more efficient PA and increase runway capacity. An improved wake dissipation model is used to quickly predict the change in the wake velocity field for the PA procedures. The change in the width of the hazard zone is explored in detail using the roll moment coefficient as a determination index. The calculation method for the hazard zone of a wake encounter in a PA is designed considering the influence of crosswind, turbulence, and ground effect. The results show the diffusion rate of the hazard zone and a decrease in the width of the maximum hazard zone under a breezeless environment with increases in the turbulence intensity. The maximum hazard zone width decreases with an increase in crosswind speed. Favorable crosswinds can reduce wake separation and improve the efficiency of a PA. Lower turbulence intensity has a better crosswind effect under a normal PA. The 3-degree offset PA can accommodate larger unfavorable crosswinds, with a higher turbulence intensity having a better crosswind effect. The 3-degree offset PA can substantially increase the proportion of time when no wake affects the PA procedure.

“…Historically, it has been widely used to design new operational concepts, including humans-in-the-loop simulations for validation (i.e. paired approaches, 1 flight-deck-based merging 2 and separation assurance 3 ). Additionally, it has been used for the evaluation of system-wide performance 4 and for optimisation, using higher level modelling (as in oceanic airspace in the Pacific, 5 in the National Airspace Systems, using multi-agent simulation 6,7 ) or focusing at the node (airport or terminal area) -as in the Dulles Airport arrival operations redesig n, 8 in which Terminal Area Route Generation Evaluation and Traffic Simulation (TARGETS) software and Base of Aircraft Data (BADA) have been used.…”

This paper describes two systems that can be used to obtain realistic random traffic samples in a terminal area: a real traffic analyser and a synthetic traffic generator. These two systems allow the air traffic management (ATM) engineer to gain insight on the traffic structure of the area under analysis, and allow obtaining realistic traffic samples enabling the evaluation of new operational concepts, the validation or system performance measurement after procedure changes, the analysis of ATM performance under forecasted future traffic changes, etc. Together with the design of the system, the work provides insight of user interfaces and describes the potential uses of such tools in an integrated ATM system.
