需要有效的解决方案来满足航空业不断增长的需求。飞行轨迹优化被认为是提高常规航空运输系统运行性能的核心技术之一。针对二次雷达数据获取的一系列飞行数据，对飞行轨迹优化的潜在效益进行了深入的定量评估。动态规划作为优化工具，以实现最佳的飞行轨迹，考虑燃料消耗和飞行时间之间的权衡。日本气象厅的气象数据和欧洲航空安全组织的飞机数据库模型数据被用来评估飞行数据和最佳轨迹的操作性能。飞行数据的操作性能结果表明，根据终端空域中的下降速度选择和矢量化，燃料消耗和飞行时间之间的权衡存在显著变化。最佳轨迹实现了相当大的燃料消耗的减少，同时遵守通过调整下降设置和下降速度的顶部的到达时间的限制。
Effective solutions are required to meet the ever increasing demands in the aviation industry. Flight trajectory optimization is considered one of the core technologies to improve the operational performance of conventional air transportation systems. This paper provides an in-depth quantitative evaluation on potential benefits achieved by performing flight trajectory optimization with respect to a series of flight data obtained by secondary surveillance radar data. Dynamic programming is used as the optimization tool to achieve optimal flight trajectories by considering the tradeoff between fuel consumption and flight time. Meteorological data of the Japan Meteorological Agency and the base of aircraft data (BADA) model data of the European Organization for the Safety of Air Navigation are utilized to evaluate the operational performance of both flight data and optimal trajectories. Operational performance results of flight data show a significant variation in the tradeoff between fuel consumption and flight time according to descent speed selection and vectoring in the terminal airspace. Optimal trajectories achieve a considerable reduction of fuel consumption while complying with arrival time constraints by adjusting the top of descent setting and descent speed.
