10. An air traffic autonomous operation track generation device based on generative AI, characterized by: It includes: Define scenario module, which is configured to define typical autonomous operation scenarios. According to the autonomous operation demand analysis, six autonomous operation scenarios are defined, and the characteristics of each scenario are described and defined; Build a model module, which is configured to build a generative AI model, train it based on the historical data provided by the primary data center, and save the trained model data; train it based on the historical data provided by the primary data center, and save the trained model data; A data generation module configured to generate track data for each operational scenario using a generative AI model; The six autonomous operation scenarios of the scenario module are described and defined as follows: (1.1) Autonomous decision-making operation scenario for approach procedure. Under the concept of autonomous operation, the aircraft can realize the continuous descent operation after autonomous judgment of the continuous descent conditions, flight profile planning, and air-ground negotiation on the airborne side during the approach procedure. (1.2) Straightening operation scenarios under flexible use of airspace: In autonomous operation scenarios, the crew can actively select temporary routes and perform straightening flights; (1.3) Autonomous rerouting in bad weather: In the autonomous rerouting in bad weather scenario, the aircraft determines the best route to bypass the weather and avoid congested routes based on its business objectives and risk tolerance, and implements the route after automatic negotiation and confirmation with the ground automation system; (1.4) Single aircraft TBO required arrival time operation scenario under safety conditions; (1.5) In the aircraft emergency response scenario under the influence of severe convection on the route, in the single aircraft TBO required arrival time operation under safe conditions, the aircraft receives the key point control arrival time CTA demand of the ground digital control, and combines the surrounding situation service provided by the ground. On the premise of ensuring the safety of the preceding aircraft and surrounding route aircraft, the aircraft autonomously controls the acceleration and deceleration of the aircraft to realize the required arrival time RTA function of TBO and fly according to the predetermined track; (1.6) Autonomous wake turbulence separation operation scenario in high-density scenarios. If the aircraft encounters severe convective weather and cannot avoid or detour, in the autonomous operation scenario, the aircraft makes independent decisions and decides whether to make an emergency descent based on the situation. Through air-ground information sharing and collaborative decision-making, the pilot perceives the operating status of the surrounding airspace, the flight intentions of other flights, the use of each altitude layer, traffic conditions, and potential conflicts, and the pilot independently adjusts and changes the plan.
