Study and Concept Formulation of a Fourth-Generatio n Air Traffic Control System. Volume III-Demand and Trade Study.

摘要

Techniques and resulting data are developed in the areas of demand,data acquisition,traffic management,and communications. Each area is subdivided to reflect the geographical region of operation as oceanic,domestic enroute,terminal area,and airport. ATC performance tradeoff information is developed parametrically to encompass a wide range of possibilities for the 1995time period. Data are presented for STOL, CTOL,and SST/CTOL airplane mix configurations. Separation criteria to meet potential demands,resulting impact on safety,and required improvements for surveillance,navigation,procedure,and communications are included. The effect of airport and runway splits are discussed and parallel runway separation requirements are analyzed. Various mixes of voice and digital communications are considered. Principal computer models used in this study are discussed. (Author)
