Embodiment Construction

[0027] The method of the invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0028] First define some variables in the aircraft flight schedule.

[0029] Variables associated with aircraft type i include, seating capacity S i , hourly flight cost C i , the daily utilization rate U i and the number of aircraft A i . Variables related to flight routes include, fare V ij and passenger load factor R ij , where j represents the route of the aircraft. In addition, with T ij Indicates the flight time (voyage) of aircraft i on route j. The variables for these questions are shown in the table below:

[0030]

[0031] The optimization goal of the aircraft flight planning problem is to optimize the flight frequency of each type of aircraft on each route under the premise of satisfying a series of constraints, so as to maximize profits. we use x ij Indicates that model i has x daily on route j ij times, then the solution to the problem...

Abstract

Flight scheduling problem is to determine the optimal flight frequency for each flight path of airplanes of each type, which has important meanings for service planning and profit maximization of airline companies. In the invention, particle swarm algorithm is applied in solving the flight scheduling problem for defining the variables, the target and the constraint conditions in the flight scheduling problem, and provides the detailed steps. The algorithm has the advantages of simple process and easy execution. The test result shows that the particle swarm algorithm can rapidly and effectively solve the flight scheduling problem.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to two major fields of market planning and intelligent calculation, and mainly relates to a method for optimizing aircraft flight planning by using a particle swarm algorithm. technical background: [0002] The problem of aircraft flight planning is crucial to the planning and operation of airlines, and has once received great attention from the aviation industry. Flight planning refers to the allocation of limited resources (such as aircraft, routes, funds, personnel, etc.) of airlines, and stipulates the routes, models, flight frequencies and schedules of regular flights. Generally speaking, flight planning in a broad sense includes five aspects. According to the order of planning, they are market analysis and forecasting, determination of flight frequency and time, assignment of aircraft types, scheduling of aircraft and scheduling of crews. However, flight planning in a narrow sense only includes the first three aspects. Th...
