Abstract

Thunderstorms are recognized as perilous meteorological phenomena characterized by irregular and nonlinear movement, posing significant risks to approaching aircraft and necessitating technical methods to ensure safety to the aviation operations. This research specifically addresses the challenges associated with aircraft during the approach segment and introduces a multialgorithmic model focusing on the optimization of 4D approach trajectory. Firstly, the artificial neural network intelligent model was used to predict the thunderstorm movement track. Secondly, the multialgorithmic model combined by the rapidly exploring random tree with artificial potential field was built to plan the trajectory of the approaching aircraft under thunderstorm weather, and then, the mean filter was adopted to smooth the simulated approaching trajectory. Finally, the reliability of the model with a real case study was demonstrated. After optimized simulation by predicting the thunderstorm weather and trajectory-optimized multialgorithmic model mentioned above, the approach trajectory can be outputted successfully, but with some distortions, postprocessing with the mean filter results in a remarkably smooth approach trajectory, providing enhanced feasibility and efficiency for pilots navigating through thunderstorm weather conditions. It is ultimately proved that refined 4D trajectory operations under hazardous weather conditions hold substantial significance in advancing aviation safety and operational effectiveness.
