Abstract |
This paper presents a simulation system for air traffic control (ATC) training. The structure of the ATC is analyzed to define simulation components to be developed. Requirements that must be satisfied by a training simulator are also identified. The results were reflected in the design of the simulator. The training simulator is composed of threemodules same as in real life : air traffic controller, aircraft, radar. Each developed module performs the strict unit tests and combine test based on the scalability, ease, real-time, the operating range of the algorithm derived from the requirements. The simulation system can be connected to an actual ATC, and used to validate the ATC system. At peak load, 1200 aircraft and 30 radars can be operated simultaneously. |
