ICARUS - Intelligent Communications and Avionics for Robust Unmanned Aerial Systems
La recerca del grup Icarus se centra en l'àmbit dels vehicles aeris no tripulats, també anomenats UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles). Com el seu nom indica aquests aparells no disposen d'un pilot humà a bord. L'objectiu del grup és investigar tecnologies que permetin desenvolupar UAVs de baix cost amb capacitat per realitzar missions de caràcter civil de forma totalment autònoma per tal que puguin actuar en situacions crítiques, D-cub situations (Dull,Dirty,Dangerous).

Real-time Identification of High-Lift Devices Deployment in Aircraft Descents (An Interacting Multiple Model Filtering Application Validated with Simulated Trajectories)
(Single European Sky ATM Research (SESAR), 2020)
Conference report
Open AccessIn this contribution, we focus on the real-time identification of the moment high-lift devices (typically flaps and slats) are deployed, based on surveillance input data. This estimation aims to enhance ground-based ... -
The effect of LCC market entry on dominant FSC's price into long haul sector: A case of Norwegian competition on British Airways' prices on selected transatlantic routes
(2021-03)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe concept of long-haul low-cost operations has become somewhat appealing in the airline industry in recent years. In Europe, the rapid expansion of low-cost carrier Norwegian that entered the long-haul markets from several ... -
A novel methodology to predict regulations using deep learning
(Single European Sky ATM Research (SESAR), 2020)
Conference report
Open AccessThe current air traffic control system tries to allocate as many flights as possible in a scenario that is expected to be time-efficient, cost-efficient, and safe. To guaranty these safety conditions, it is performed a ... -
How to achieve CDOs for all aircraft: automated separation in TMAs - enabling flexible entry times and accounting for wake turbulence categories
(2020)
Conference report
Open AccessThis work presents an enhanced optimization framework for fully automated scheduling of energy-efficient descent arrivals with guaranteed separation in the Terminal Maneuvering Area (TMA). On the example of a real heavy-traffic ... -
Traffic synchronization in terminal airspace to enable continuous descent operations in trombone sequencing and merging procedures: An implementation study for Frankfurt airport
(2020-12)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper proposes to enhance the current tromboning paradigm with a four dimensional trajectory negotiation and synchronization process with the aim to maximise the number of neutral Continuous descent operations (CDOs, ... -
Feature selection model based on EEG signals for assessing the cognitive workload in drivers
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2020-10-17)
Article
Open AccessIn recent years, research has focused on generating mechanisms to assess the levels of subjects’ cognitive workload when performing various activities that demand high concentration levels, such as driving a vehicle. These ... -
Advanced statistical signal processing for next generation trajectory prediction
(2020)
Conference report
Open AccessTrajectory Prediction (TP) is fundamental in Air Traffic Management (ATM). This research focuses on TP for the execution phase of the flight. In contrast to exploit black-box machine learning-based solutions, we tackle TP ... -
Identification of significant impact factors on Arrival Flight Efficiency within TMA
(2020)
Conference report
Open AccessAn important step towards improving the flight performance within Terminal Maneuvering Area (TMA) is the identification of the factors causing inefficiencies. Without knowing which exact factors have high impact on which ... -
Comparison of fuel consumption of Continuous Descent Operations with required times of arrival
(2020)
Conference report
Open AccessContinuous descent operations (CDOs) with required times of arrival (RTAs) have proven to deliver major environmental benefits in terminal maneuvering areas (TMAs) without degrading capacity. When traffic density is high, ... -
Automation for separation with continuous descent operations: dynamic aircraft arrival routes
(2020-05-28)
Article
Open AccessThis paper presents a mixed-integer programming approach to compute aircraft arrival routes in a terminal maneuvering area (TMA) with guaranteed temporal separation of all aircraft arriving within a given time period. ... -
