{"title":"Design principles and algorithm development for two types of NextGen airborne conflict detection and collision avoidance","authors":"R. Chamlou","doi":"10.1109/ICNSURV.2010.5503327","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ICNSURV.2010.5503327","url":null,"abstract":"As the aviation community moves toward the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen), the current Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS II) may become inadequate. This paper describes two types of algorithms that use Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) as the surveillance source for future airborne collision avoidance systems (CASs). The first type, denoted by NextCAS I, estimates the range, range rate, altitude and altitude rate from the ADS-B state vector information but maintains much of the detection and all of the resolution logic structure of the current TCAS. The second type, denoted by NextCAS II, provides a novel approach to detection and resolution of air traffic conflicts in the 3-dimensional (3-D) airspace between two aircraft. The inputs to the detection algorithm are the current 3-D position and speed vector of both aircraft and a cylindrical minimum safety protection zone (PZ) around the conflicting aircraft. For a CAS, the size of the configurable PZ can be assigned values that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) considers as a near mid-air collision (NMAC1) incident. When available, additional inputs, such as measurement uncertainties and intruder type (e.g., manned/unmanned), can be used to alter the default protection zone. The conflict detection takes into account the 3-D encounter (e.g., closure rate, miss distance, relative converging maneuver). The resolution algorithm initially computes a set of six resolution advisories (RAs) and associated resolution alert times that ensure no violation of the protection zone. The six resolutions consist of three sets of two maneuvers related to: ground track (left, right), forward speed (speed up, slow down), and vertical speed (climb, descend). The 1 NMAC - The NMAC is defined by a cylindrical volume with a radius of 500 ft and a height of 200 ft, centered on each aircraft. initial solutions take into account ownship capability (i.e., max climb/descent rate, max turn rate, max speed/stall speed) and ownship pilot response delay (e.g., autonomous vs. manual RA execution). These six solutions are subsequently down-selected in two steps: first, based on the encounter geometry, a single implicitly coordinated, independent solution is selected for each of the three dimensions; then, based on ownship preferences and operational considerations, a final RA solution is selected.","PeriodicalId":345677,"journal":{"name":"2010 Integrated Communications, Navigation, and Surveillance Conference Proceedings","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114671028","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aircraft radar position reports are compared with Global Positioning System (GPS) position reports delivered by Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) for aircraft targets of opportunity. ADS-B positions are regarded as truth for error determination. The analysis procedure applies techniques developed to minimize timing discrepancy between ADS and radar position measurement systems to achieve best time registration and to minimize azimuth measurement bias for separate aircraft tracks in the population. Azimuth error probability distribution models that best fit the data are determined by a procedure that tests values for distribution parameters and maximizes the fit quality for Gaussian, double Gaussian, and Gauss-Laplace error distributions. The analysis found that azimuth errors for the general population of aircraft best fit a double Gaussian error distribution model. An analysis technique that removed the residual azimuth bias for individual aircraft tracks produced a result where the azimuth errors best fit a Gauss-Laplace error model. The double Gaussian result is representative of a surveillance system that applies techniques to generally remove azimuth and time bias. The Gauss-Laplace models a surveillance system that dynamically aligns and removes bias for individual aircraft.","PeriodicalId":345677,"journal":{"name":"2010 Integrated Communications, Navigation, and Surveillance Conference Proceedings","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127591374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As public entities with no stockholder profit motives, the airport authorities are obliged to work to balance the interests of all of their stakeholders to build the airport infrastructure, lease space to service providers, and ensure that the service providers collaborate to provide seamless, safe, secure service to the consumers of air travel services.

However, CRs are also used in other mission critical domains such as 911, or Emergency control centers. In the past this led to the development of domain specific control rooms resulting in different solutions for each specific environment. This raises the cost for efficient software development and increases the time-to-market. A modern Ontology-Based Control Room Framework (ONTOCOR) could dramatically improve this Air Traffic Management (ATM) situation. Uniform and open standards build up ontologies described by the Web Ontology Language (OWL). Information Management (IM) and the development of uniform and open standards are key components of the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) and Europe's SESAR Program. ONTOCOR increases productive code usage and reduces software development. It focuses on improving efficiency and gain effort by code reusability, thus contributing to reduction of deployment cost of such solutions. This paper analyzes and compares different ontology languages as well as relevant semantic tools for ontology development and management. The present paper will also give a brief survey on ontology-based software engineering, before the ongoing research of ONTOCOR is introduced.","PeriodicalId":345677,"journal":{"name":"2010 Integrated Communications, Navigation, and Surveillance Conference Proceedings","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115456450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
