Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of intelligence, and in particular to a digital parallel simulation airport aircraft taxiing simulation scheduling system and method. Background Art

[0002] As the number of flights at airports continues to increase, the pressure on green, safe and efficient surface operations is increasing. Faced with increasingly busy airports, how to improve the efficiency of airport surface resource operations and reduce carbon emissions has become a major issue in civil aviation ground transportation research. There are many factors that affect aircraft taxiing. On the one hand, the calculation scale is large, and it is difficult to calculate a feasible solution in a short time by manual methods; on the other hand, considering multiple objectives and constraints, the calculated solution is not optimal. Furthermore, the various solutions under different objectives and constraints vary greatly, and a multi-dimensional perspective is needed to visualize and evaluate their advantages and disadvantages. With the help of advanced technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data and digital twins, it is urgent to study the intelligent daily operation management of airport aircraft taxiing scheduling, actively perceive environmental changes to identify its operating bottlenecks, and quickly generate a green scheduling plan suitable for environmental changes, reduce aircraft taxiing time, avoid conflicts, and reduce aircraft ground congestion and carbon emissions by improving the efficiency of airport aircraft taxiing operations.

[0003] Through studying and combing a large number of domestic and foreign literature, the existing theoretical research and practice of intelligent taxiing scheduling have two main deficiencies: on the one hand, some studies have established mathematical models of airport taxiing paths in static environments and constructed solution algorithms from the perspective of operations optimization, which is also difficult to apply to taxiing scheduling problems in dynamically changing environments; on the other hand, some studies have simulated the behaviors of captains and controllers from the perspective of simulation optimization to generate taxiing paths, but the deficiency is that the simulation environment is relatively rough and cannot approach the real world. Therefore, a digital parallel simulation of airport aircraft taxiing virtual-real combined scheduling can solve the airport aircraft taxiing scheduling problem, and existing research is relatively rare.

[0004] Therefore, the present invention develops a digital parallel simulation airport aircraft taxiing simulation scheduling system and method, an airport aircraft taxiing physical model, an airport aircraft taxiing parallel simulation model, a data-driven airport situation awareness model, and an aircraft taxiing scheduling strategy generation model based on autonomous learning. Based on intelligent network technology, the physical world and the virtual world are combined, and the aircraft taxiing process is reproduced using real data, scenes, plans and knowledge, and the impact of various traffic events on the scheduling plan is simulated and evaluated, thereby assisting the safe and efficient level of airport field operation intelligence.

[0021] Step 1.3: Integrate the status of surface operation micro- and macro-indicators to monitor the operation status of the taxiing network. When an indicator is abnormal, warn of abnormal information and diagnose the cause based on the causal correlation between them, such as the impact of weather and intrusion events on aircraft taxiing.

[0022] Furthermore, the airport aircraft taxiing parallel simulation model constructs a virtual reality environment of the airport aircraft taxiing physical model based on high-precision GIS, including parking positions, taxiway networks and runway gate configurations, etc., accesses real-time scene operation multi-source heterogeneous data based on intelligent network technology, and visualizes the historical and current aircraft taxiing process and the real operation status of the runway.
