Autonomous Operation Mode of Aircrafts in Tube Air Corridor
-
摘要: 为了提升管型航路内航空器运行效率，降低飞行延误和冲突，首先选取了定速、超越和自由3种典型自主运行模式，并分析了其特点；其后，建立了管型航路中航空器自主运行仿真模型，并采用蒙特卡洛仿真与机器学习相结合的方法，分析了自主运行模式中关键变量的相关性；最后，以北京首都机场—广州白云机场高空航路为实例，建立了各衡量指标回归模型，并对3种模式典型指标进行了敏感性分析. 研究结果表明：自由模式中的吞吐量和总延误时间指标相对较好，但冲突率相对较高，冲突率最小值为0.036 1；超越模式中各项指标相对折衷，其航路资源的利用率不如自由模式，吞吐量约为自由模式的61.89%；定速模式中的航空器缺乏调整速度和间隔的调整能力，受航空器的初始间隔影响较为明显.Abstract: To improve the operational efficiency of aircrafts in tube air corridor, reduce flight delays and conflicts, three representative aircraft operation modes were analyzed including, the speed-based mode, speed-independent mode and self-separation mode. Then, an autonomous operation model was built by simulation, and the correlation between important variables in the model were analyzed in a way of combining the Monte Carlo simulation and machine learning. Finally, the upper air route between Beijing Capital Airport and Guangzhou Baiyun Airport was selected as a study case. The regression models for all metrics were established and sensitivity analysis was conducted for the typical metrics of three modes. The results show that in the self-separation mode throughput and delay time are desirable while the conflict rate is relatively high with a minimum of 0.0361. The speed-independent mode leads to moderate results, which implies a low utilization of route resource with about 61.89% throughput of the self-separation mode. The speed-based mode lacks the functions of speed and separation adjustment, which is obviously affected by the initial separation.
