An Aircraft Conflict Resolution Model Based on Geometric Optimization

A geometrically optimal conflict detection and resolution method was proposed to make up for the defect of current methods in engineering applications conflict resolution. Firstly, the conflict resolution point of the problem is defined, at which point the possible flight conflicts between aircrafts are predicted; Secondly, the same direction same angle (SDSA) is adopted to solve the flight conflict, that is, the two aircrafts turn the same angle to the same side at the same time on the original track to obtain a new track crossing point, namely a track recovery point. Thus the minimum separation between the two planes is always maintained. Finally, the simulation results show that the method is simple and efficient.
