AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing urban low-altitude airspace planning methods fail to fully consider traffic demand distribution, heading characteristics, and traffic conflict risks, resulting in uneven airspace utilization, increased conflict risks, and excessive system complexity in high-density operation scenarios.

Method used

By introducing heading information and conflict probability modeling, a hierarchical planning model for urban low-altitude airspace oriented towards traffic demand is constructed to optimize the airspace structure, reduce conflict risk, and control system complexity. This includes the standardization of the angles of the flight paths at each low-altitude take-off and landing point and the calculation of the probability of traffic flow conflicts in adjacent layers and within the same layer.

Benefits of technology

It enables accurate reflection of traffic flow interactions while satisfying the constraints on the number of altitude layers, reducing potential conflict risks, improving airspace utilization and management efficiency, and enhancing the safety and feasibility of low-altitude airspace operations.

Abstract

This invention relates to the field of urban low-altitude airspace planning technology, and particularly to a method for constructing a hierarchical planning model for urban low-altitude airspace oriented towards traffic demand. The method for constructing this hierarchical planning model plans each low-altitude altitude layer corresponding to a specific heading angle range. Multiple low-altitude altitude layers can exist within the same heading angle range. The model construction method includes the following steps: First, acquiring aircraft operational demand data between low-altitude take-off and landing points within the study area, and standardizing the angles of direct flight routes between take-off and landing points; second, proposing a method to calculate the average probability of conflict between aircraft within the same layer of traffic flow and between adjacent layers of traffic flow based on the heading extension range; finally, providing an overall method for constructing a hierarchical planning model for urban low-altitude airspace oriented towards traffic demand. By using altitude layering to reduce low-altitude traffic flow operational conflicts, the proposed model considers both the total number of available low-altitude altitude layers and the control of airspace structural complexity while reducing traffic conflicts, thereby effectively improving the safety and manageability of urban low-altitude hierarchical airspace operation.
