Abstract

Air transport system undergoes continuous evolution in order to adapt to future performance, quality and safety requirements. This implies the operational use of new techniques in navigation, communications, surveillance, regulations and computer based assistance/automation systems. In the context of the future ATM system, airports will play a critical role since they have to face with serious environmental (noise impact) and operational restrictions which reduce their potential capacity. To meet the projected airport demand and improve efficiency of ground operations while maintaining safety, several new operational concepts are currently under investigation, including new regulations or operational concepts, and advanced equipment or computer-based assistance systems. The French Aeronautics and Space Research Center (ONERA) is participating in this effort through the desing of a modeling and simulation infrastructure for acquisition and analysis of airport operational concepts and equipment. The originality of this work is to provide an open and scalable simulation support aiming at easily plug additional components in order to analyse and compare the efficiency of several airport configurations.
