A number of methods have been proposed to automate air traffic conflict detection and
resolution (CDR), but there has been little cohesive discussion or comparative evaluation of …

Abstract Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have seen an important growth in various
military and civilian applications including surveillance, reconnaissance, homeland security …

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS), currently
mandated on all large transport aircraft, has been shown to significantly reduce the risk of …

Recent years have seen an increase in reported unmanned aerial systems (UAS) incursion
into terminal airspace, likely due to the ease of access to recreational UAS to the general …

Safety in air traffic management at the tactical level is ensured by human controllers.
Automatic detection and resolution tools are one way to assist controllers in their tasks …

The design and evaluation of traffic conflict detection and resolution systems requires the
use of analytical models that describe encounter dynamics and the costs and benefits of …

The increased availability of off-the-shelf recreational unmanned aerial systems (UAS) on
the market has greatly increased the likelihood of UAS intrusion, regardless of intent, into the …

This paper proposes a simple geometric method for collaborative multiple-aircraft conflict
avoidance. We assume that aircraft cruise at constant altitude with varying velocities and …

An important consideration in the development of aircraft collision avoidance systems is how
to account for state uncertainty due to sensor limitations and noise. However, many collision …

At the present time, there is no mechanism for Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs) to
probe new flight plans filed by the Airlines Operation Centers (AOCs) against the existing …
