The research of airborne ADS-B-based procedures using fast-time and real-time simulation

I. The simulation and research into advanced airborne CNS procedures was conducted by the Research Stand for Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation of Air Traffic Control Systems (KIS UVD) in 2013–2014. II. As part of the research, the following CNS procedures were reviewed: • ITP (In-Trail Procedure) • FIM (Flight-Deck Interval Management) • ACM (Airborne Conflict Management). III. Real-time simulation was conducted with the participation of ATC workstation operator, operator of the advanced cockpit DKS IMA simulator and pilot workstation operator. IV. The research into CNS procedures was conducted using fast-time simulation in automatic mode without operator´s participation. V. As part of the work • the cooperation of pilot and ATC during advanced CNS procedures was approbated • the interfaces of CNS procedures for pilot and ATC were tested • performance approbation of CNS procedures in high air traffic conditions with the impact of random factors was held • the quantity characteristics of changes in performance caused by using new CNS procedures were calculated • CNS procedures were compared with standard procedures VI. The results show • Improved performance and prospects using new CNS procedures • KIS UVD stand practicability for simulation and research of airborne and ATC procedures • Need for future research of CNS procedures VII. The future research trends are: • The research of airborne procedures in different air traffic intensity and in conditions where one part of aircrafts is equipped with ADS-B-, ITP-, FIM-, ACM avionics and another part is not equipped • The research of FIM procedure on STAR • The simulation and research of other ADS-B-based procedures (ASIA, SURF) • The research into airborne procedures, connected with weather hazard avoidance • The research into airborne procedures using the real air traffic.
