Capability-aware traffic flow management for metroplex environment
Shervin AhmadBeygi, Emily Bromberg, Matthew Elliott, Taryn Lewis, Ved Sud · 2013
Flow conflicts can reduce metroplex capacity, especially in less than visual weather conditions PBN approaches can help alleviate the conflict and improve capacity Mixed PBN capabilities (in NAS users) can impede full deployment TFM can create temporary critical mass through exclusive TMI Implementing such TMIs, however, is not trivial Proper implementation (duration and timing) is key to generating benefits Flight capabilities should be available in advance (\textasciitilde 8 hours prior to departure) Traffic managers should have proper decision support tools to find a sweet spot in demand and model the outcomes Immediate ground delays System-wide impact of ground delays.
