China Aviation Network Characteristics and Robustness Research

Abstract

Analysis of network characteristics and robustness play an important role for the aviation network overall function. This paper collects the data of the current China's domestic aviation network, and estimates the statistical characteristics of the aviation network. The research results show that: the flight route, resource distribution Chinese aviation network in serious imbalance, a large number of airline and flight concentrated in a city, the total number of flights, routes which point strength ranked the top 20 city accounted for the proportion reached 52% and 68%; transfer role of aviation network in navigable city also differ greatly, a few navigable city plays a central role in transit, and nearly half of the city basic cannot play the role of transfer. On this basis, this paper designs two kinds of simulation systems, the deliberate targeting system and random interference system, and does some simulation experiments. Through analysis of simulation data, obtained for the random interference of China's aviation network showed strong robustness, and in the face of deliberate attacks are more vulnerable to conclusions.
