VHF air to ground communications in bounded oceanic airspaceLaClare, Jeanette M. 16 February 2010 (has links)
<p>The international aviation industry has embraced a revolutionary future concept of
operations known as "free flight". The free flight concept allows each aircraft to travel
between destinations using flexible fuel efficient routes rather than the current fixed jet routes.
Flying the present inefficient fixed routes costs the airlines millions of dollars
annually in fuel and personnel costs. Additionally, because there are only a limited
number of the current "highways in the sky", aircraft in the United States and Europe
regularly experience delays waiting for their turn to access the jet-routes. This present
system also constrains future air traffic growth, particularly in oceanic airspace.</p>
<p>
To address these deficiencies, direct pilot-to-controller communications are required in
oceanic airspace managed by the United States. This functional requirement for direct
pilot-to-controller communications is not being met by the present oceanic air-to-ground
communications system.</p>
<p>Using a systems engineering approach, this project determines the feasibility of
extending domestic air traffic control communication systems into the U.S. managed
oceanic airspace over the Gulf of Mexico. Two feasible alternatives are evaluated for
achieving this capability.</p> / Master of Science

DPP: Dual Path PKI for Secure Aircraft Data CommunicationBuchholz, Alexander Karl 02 May 2013 (has links)
Through application of modern technology, aviation systems are becoming more automated and are relying less on antiquated air traffic control (ATC) voice systems. Aircraft are now able to wirelessly broadcast and receive identity and location information using transponder technology. This helps reduce controller workload and allows the aircraft to take more responsibility for maintaining safe separation. However, these systems lack source authentication methods or the ability to check the integrity of message content. This opens the door for hackers to potentially create fraudulent messages or manipulate message content.
This thesis presents a solution to handling many of the potential security issues in aircraft data communication. This is accomplished through the implementation of a Dual Path PKI (DPP) design which includes a novel approach to handling certificate revocation through session certificates. DPP defines two authentication protocols, one between aircraft and another between aircraft and ATC, to achieve source authentication. Digital signature technology is utilized to achieve message content and source integrity as well as enable bootstrapping DPP into current ATC systems. DPP employs cutting-edge elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) algorithms to increase performance and reduce overhead.
T is found that the DPP design successfully mitigates several of the cyber security concerns in aircraft and ATC data communications. An implementation of the design shows that anticipated ATC systems can accommodate the additional processing power and bandwidth required by DPP to successfully achieve system integrity and security. / Master of Science

A Unified Tool For Adaptive Collocation Techniques Applied to Solving Optimal Control ProblemsKelly, Bethany 01 January 2022 (has links) (PDF)
In this work, a user-friendly MATLAB tool is introduced to solve nonlinear optimal control problems by applying collocation techniques using Coupled Radial Basis Functions (CRBFs). CRBFs are a new class of Radial Basis Functions combined with a conical spline r^5, which provides the advantage of insensitivity to the shape parameter while maintaining accuracy and robustness. To solve optimal control problems, software tools are often employed to implement numerical methods and apply advanced techniques to solving differential equations. Although several commercial software tools exist for solving optimal control problems, such as ICLOCS2, GPOPS, and DIDO, there are no options available that utilize adaptive collocation with CRBFs. A unified MATLAB tool named Radial Optimal Control Software (ROCS) is introduced and not only implements the CRBF method, but also enables any user, from professionals to students, to solve nonlinear optimal control problems through a user-friendly interface. The tool accepts user input for boundary conditions, necessary conditions, and the governing equations of motion. The two-point boundary value problem (TPBVP) is approximated through collocation using CRBFs, and the resulting nonlinear algebraic equations (NAEs) are solved with a MATLAB solver. The tool's usefulness and application are demonstrated by solving classical nonlinear optimal control problems and comparing the results with the solutions found in the literature. Compared to classical numerical method techniques, the present tool is shown to solve optimal control problems more efficiently for the same level of accuracy. By introducing this unified MATLAB tool to solving nonlinear optimal control problems, the intent is to enable professionals and students to solve nonlinear optimal control problems, e.g., in astrodynamics and space-flight mechanics, without the need for extensive manipulation of code in existing software tools and without extensive knowledge of applying numerical solvers.

Traffic Signal Control with Ant Colony OptimizationRenfrew, David T 01 November 2009 (has links) (PDF)
Traffic signal control is an effective way to improve the efficiency of traffic networks and reduce users’ delays. Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is a metaheuristic based on the behavior of ant colonies searching for food. ACO has successfully been used to solve many NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems and its stochastic and decentralized nature fits well with traffic flow networks. This thesis investigates the application of ACO to minimize user delay at traffic intersections. Computer simulation results show that this new approach outperforms conventional fully actuated control under the condition of high traffic demand.

Development of a Computer Based Airspace Sector Occupancy ModelSale, Shrinivas M. 10 August 1998 (has links)
This thesis deals with the development of an Airspace Sector Occupancy Model (ASOM). The model determines the occupancy of Air Traffic Control Center (ARTCC) sectors for a given geometry of sectors and flight schedules, and can be used to study the impact of alternative flight schedules on the workload imposed on the sectors. Along with complimentary airspace analysis models, this can serve as an advisory tool to approve flight plans in the Free Flight Scenario, or to reschedule flights around a Special Use Airspace (SUA).
ASOM is developed using Matlab 5.2, and can be run on an IBM compatible PC, Macintosh, or Unix Workstation. The computerized model incorporates the powerful features of graphics and hierarchical modeling inherent in Matlab, to design an effective tool for analyzing air traffic scenarios and their respective sector occupancies. / Master of Science

Simulation-Based Study to Quantify Data-Communication Benefits in Congested Airport Terminal AreaEnea, Gabriele 05 May 2008 (has links)
The scope of this study was to evaluate the impact of the air traffic controller-to-pilot communication standard known as CPDLC or Data-Communication on the future air traffic operations. The impact was evaluated from the double viewpoint of airport delays and air traffic controllers' workload. RAMS simulation software is used to perform all the runs and from its output data the values of terminal area delays and controllers workload are obtained. The New York Metroplex terminal area was used as a case study. Because of its complexity, where three major airports (i.e. JFK, Newark, and La Guardia) interact and constraint each other, this area was particularly interesting to be studied and the data analyzed gave a valuable insight on the possible future impact of Data-Communication in congested terminal areas. The results of the study, based on some previous man-in-the-loop simulations performed by the FAA in the nineties, showed that significant potential benefits could be obtained with the complete implementation of such technologies in the workload experienced by air traffic controllers. Moreover some small but not negligible benefits were obtained in the total delays accrued by each airport studied. On the other hand, the simulations of the future demand predicted by the FAA demonstrated that without a significant increment in capacity or limitation on the traffic growth intolerable delays would be recorded across the NAS in the future. For the complexity of the simulation model calibration and for the very time-consuming run time not all the scenarios described in the methodology were tested, demonstrating the weakness of RAMS as a ground simulation model. / Master of Science

Air Traffic Control Resource Management Strategies and the Small Aircraft Transportation System: A System Dynamics PerspectiveGalvin, James J. 12 December 2002 (has links)
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is leading a research effort to develop a Small Aircraft Transportation System (SATS) that will expand air transportation capabilities to hundreds of underutilized airports in the United States. Most of the research effort addresses the technological development of the small aircraft as well as the systems to manage airspace usage and surface activities at airports. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) will also play a major role in the successful implementation of SATS, however, the administration is reluctant to embrace the unproven concept.
The purpose of the research presented in this dissertation is to determine if the FAA can pursue a resource management strategy that will support the current radar-based Air Traffic Control (ATC) system as well as a Global Positioning Satellite (GPS)-based ATC system required by the SATS. The research centered around the use of the System Dynamics modeling methodology to determine the future behavior of the principle components of the ATC system over time.
The research included a model of the ATC system consisting of people, facilities, equipment, airports, aircraft, the FAA budget, and the Airport and Airways Trust Fund. The model generated system performance behavior used to evaluate three scenarios. The first scenario depicted the base case behavior of the system if the FAA continued its current resource management practices. The second scenario depicted the behavior of the system if the FAA emphasized development of GPS-based ATC systems. The third scenario depicted a combined resource management strategy that supplemented radar systems with GPS systems.
The findings of the research were that the FAA must pursue a resource management strategy that primarily funds a radar-based ATC system and directs lesser funding toward a GPS-based supplemental ATC system. The most significant contribution of this research was the insight and understanding gained of how several resource management strategies and the presence of SATS aircraft may impact the future US Air Traffic Control system. / Ph.
