AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing flight control systems struggle to determine optimal flight paths for aircraft spanning multiple managed airspaces due to an exponential increase in computational load, especially when considering combinations across different controlled airspaces, leading to potential performance declines.

Method used

An air traffic control device that manages flight paths across multiple airspaces by sharing and acquiring flight path determination difficulty scores, allowing for efficient path determination by limiting the number of combinations and reducing computational load.

Benefits of technology

Enables efficient determination of flight paths spanning multiple airspaces, reducing the probability of path determination failures and optimizing flight operations.

Abstract

To provide a flying object flight management device capable of efficiently determining a flight path across a plurality of controlled airspaces.SOLUTION: A flight management device for performing flight management of a flying object intended fly across a plurality of controlled airspaces is provided, the flight management device being configured to manage some of the plurality of controlled airspaces. The flight management device is configured to shares levels of flight path determination difficulty indicative of how difficult it is to determine a flight path in the controlled airspaces with other flight management devices managing other controlled airspaces, acquire a level of flight path determination difficulty in each controlled airspace, and determine a flight path across the plurality of controlled airspaces on the basis of the set levels of flight path determination difficulty.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
