[0002] Current air traffic management systems mainly rely on single data sources such as radar and ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast) for airspace monitoring, which lacks comprehensive perception capabilities for complex weather conditions, aircraft dynamics, and emergencies.

Furthermore, existing systems lack effective spatiotemporal alignment mechanisms when fusing multi-source data, leading to poor cross-modal information correlation and an inability to accurately assess complex risk scenarios.

[0076] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the air traffic control airspace risk warning method in some embodiments of this disclosure. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the air traffic control airspace risk early warning method includes the following steps:

[0077] S1: Acquire multi-source heterogeneous spatial data.

[0078] Among them, the multi-source heterogeneous airspace data includes radar monitoring data, Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) signal data, meteorological sensor data, flight plan data, and airport operation status data, forming the original multimodal data pool.

[0079] Radar monitoring data includes aircraft position, altitude, and velocity vectors. ADS-B signal data includes flight identification codes, heading angles, and emergency status codes. Meteorological sensor data includes wind speed, visibility, cumulonimbus cloud distribution, and turbulence intensity. Flight plan data includes waypoints, estimated arrival times, and remaining fuel. Airport operational status data includes runway occupancy, parking stand status, and ground support resource availability. Radar monitoring data provides real-time aircraft motion vectors, ADS-B supplements flight identification and emergency status, meteorological sensors cover key parameters such as wind speed and cumulonimbus clouds, and flight plans are correlated with airport data to determine route feasibility, forming a multi-dimensional panoramic view of airspace status and providing complete input for risk assessment.

[0080] S2: Spatiotemporal alignment of multi-source heterogeneous spatial data is performed to obtain a fused data stream, and outlier detection and interpolation compensation methods are used to correct, denoise and convert the fused data stream.

[0081] Multi-source data is spatiotemporally aligned using a timestamp and spatial location association algorithm to generate a unified format fused data stream. Outlier detection and interpolation compensation algorithms correct for missing data or noise. The fused data is then converted into a pre-defined input format for a risk assessment model. Different modalities (such as radar tracks and meteorological cloud images) are mapped to a unified spatiotemporal coordinate system based on timestamps and geographic coordinates, eliminating time differences and spatial misalignments between sensors. Anomaly detection algorithms remove noisy data caused by signal jumps and equipment malfunctions, and interpolation algorithms fill in short-term missing values. The cleaned data is then converted into a structured format for subsequent model processing.

[0082] In some embodiments of this disclosure, step S2 may include the following steps:

[0083] S2-1: Perform consistency verification between radar monitoring data and ADS-B signal data, and remove abnormal data points whose spatial position deviation exceeds the threshold.

[0084] S2-2: The Kalman filter algorithm is used to smooth short-term fluctuations in meteorological sensor data, and missing values ​​caused by communication interruptions are filled in by data from adjacent nodes.

[0085] S2-3: Logical verification of time conflict items in flight plan data. The system obtains different route information and the location where each route intersects with other routes. It verifies the time when the aircraft of the two routes pass through the intersection to avoid the situation where two aircraft arrive at the location at the same time. It also correlates with airport operation status data to correct unreachable waypoints. The system obtains airport and airspace control information in real time and corrects the routes to bypass temporarily closed airports or temporarily controlled airspace.

[0086] S2-4: Consistency checks are used to eliminate positional discrepancies between radar and ADS-B data, Kalman filtering smooths weather fluctuations, and logical checks correct flight plan conflicts, ensuring the spatiotemporal consistency and reliability of input data and avoiding noise data from interfering with risk assessment results.

[0087] S3: The risk assessment model is used to process the fused data stream after correction, denoising and format conversion to obtain the comprehensive risk level of the current airspace, and the corresponding early warning strategy is triggered based on the comprehensive risk level.

[0088] The overall risk level is one of three: high risk, medium risk, or low risk.

[0089] Feature extraction is performed on the fused data stream using a sliding time window, and pattern matching results are combined with those from a historical risk database to evaluate the overall risk level of the current airspace. For example, the current risk level is 0 when weather conditions have no impact on aircraft flight; 1 when weather conditions have a slight impact on aircraft flight; 2 when weather conditions have a significant impact on aircraft flight; and 3 when weather conditions have a severe impact on aircraft flight.

[0090] The same method can be used to evaluate the risk level of other data. When assessing the overall risk level, the risk level of each data point is obtained. When the risk level is 3, the overall risk level is determined to be high-risk; when the risk level is 2, the overall risk level is determined to be medium-risk; and when the risk level is 1, the overall risk level is determined to be low-risk.

[0091] The system extracts features such as aircraft density, flight path intersection probability, and weather threat coverage in the current airspace using a sliding time window (e.g., a 5-minute window). These features are then combined with risk patterns from similar scenarios in historical databases (e.g., flight detour conflicts caused by thunderstorms) to generate a weighted comprehensive risk level. The risk level generator categorizes the index into low, medium, and high levels based on preset thresholds and triggers corresponding early warning strategies.

[0092] In some embodiments of this disclosure, step S3 may include the following steps:

[0093] S3-1: Statistically analyze the number and speed distribution of aircraft within a preset airspace grid.

[0094] S3-2: Based on the aircraft trajectory prediction results, the system calculates potential conflict points within the next 5 to 15 minutes. The system acquires flight path data within the airspace, predicts the aircraft's flight path based on the real-time flight path of the aircraft and the positions of other flight paths, and then calculates potential conflict points that may occur in the future.

[0095] S3-3: Combining cumulonimbus cloud movement models with turbulence influence range to predict the feasibility of aircraft detour paths. Based on the area covered by the cumulonimbus cloud, its trajectory, the turbulence influence range, and the amount of fuel on board the aircraft, it is determined whether the aircraft can bypass the cumulonimbus cloud.

[0096] The overall risk level is obtained by weighting and summing traffic density, conflict probability coefficient, and meteorological threat level. Traffic density calculation quantifies airspace load, conflict probability prediction identifies potential collisions in advance based on flight path inference, and meteorological threat assessment combines cloud movement models to predict detour paths. The weighted summation mechanism integrates the influence of multiple factors, making the risk index closer to actual operational needs.

[0097] S4: Issue warnings based on early warning strategies.

[0098] The early warning methods include generating voice prompts, suggesting air traffic control instructions, and providing emergency procedure guidance, all displayed through a visual interface to show the risk distribution. Risk distribution can be dynamically displayed using 3D airspace situation maps, heat maps, and alarm markers. The visual interface uses color-coding to indicate areas of risk when displaying airspace. The 3D situation map dynamically overlays weather cloud layers, aircraft tracks, and risk heat maps to assist controllers in making rapid decisions.

[0099] In some examples disclosed herein, flashing alerts and a list of anticipated conflict points are generated on controller terminals under low-risk conditions; heading adjustment suggestions, altitude layer allocation schemes, and voice alarms are generated under medium-risk conditions; and emergency communication links are activated under high-risk conditions, automatically sending avoidance instructions to affected aircraft and initiating airspace traffic control contingency plans. The tiered strategy matches different risk levels: low-risk situations only alert to potential conflicts, medium-risk situations provide control suggestions, and high-risk situations automatically trigger emergency instructions, achieving precise resource allocation and rapid response while avoiding excessive alarms that could disrupt normal operations.

[0100] S5: Optimize the risk assessment model based on early warning feedback data and manual correction records.

[0101] The early warning feedback data includes the controller's response to the early warning, the actual changes in airspace status after the early warning is triggered, the early warning response delay, and the system's false alarm and missed alarm data. Based on the feedback data after the early warning is issued, the system can optimize the emergency procedure guidelines generated when such early warnings occur again.

[0102] In some embodiments of this disclosure, step S5 may include the following steps:

[0103] S5-1: Record the controller's operation records and the actual risk evolution results after the warning is triggered.

[0104] S5-2: Adjust the threshold parameters and weight allocation of the risk assessment model based on false alarms and missed alarms in the feedback data.

[0105] S5-3: Saves historical model versions and verifies performance improvements after parameter adjustments, supports model rollback functionality.

[0106] In this embodiment, multimodal data fusion technology significantly improves the real-time performance and accuracy of airspace risk perception, supporting dynamic assessment of complex scenarios such as flight conflicts, weather threats, and traffic overload. The system employs an adaptive risk assessment model that automatically optimizes early warning strategies based on environmental changes, reducing the need for manual intervention. Through a multi-level early warning output mechanism, it provides controllers with intuitive visual guidance and decision support, effectively shortening emergency response time. Simultaneously, its modular design is compatible with existing air traffic control facilities, supporting flexible expansion to multi-node deployment, and significantly improving airspace resource utilization efficiency and aircraft operational safety.
