Aircraft identification in airport operations is critical to various applications, including airport
planning and environmental studies. Previous research and commercially available systems …

The vast majority of US airports are not equipped with control towers, which limits their ability
to keep records of flight operations. Attempts have been made to use sensor-based …

In this correspondence the design of an airport surface surveillance system based on TV
cameras and low-cost processing hardware is described. The work presented here focuses …

Systems that provide ground movement management at airports, maintaining ground safety
and increasing air traffic capacity, are called A-SMGCS (advanced surface movement …

An aircraft is most at risk for an accident when it's still on the ground-when taxiing before
takeoff or after landing. This is because traffic throughput on the ground is limited by …

To identify any aircraft in the world, it is sufficient to read its registration number. This number
is a unique identifier, and offers valuable information, in the same way a car registration …

A reusable agent-based generic model is presented for a specific class of Ambient
Intelligence pplications: those cases addressing human wellbeing and functioning from a …

This thesis is focused on airport departure operations; its objective is to assign a value to
surface surveillance information within a collaborative framework. The research develops a …

Acoustic detection technology has disadvantages, such as short forecasting time in
monitoring low-altitude flying targets. Based on the principle that the speed of precursor …

Runway Incursion Avoidance Systems (RIAS) are vital parts in the prevention of runway
accidents at airports. Such systems depend on the accurate positioning of aircraft and …
