Comparison of various guidance strategies to achieve time constraints in optimal descents
(2019-01-01)
Article
Open AccessContinuous Descent Operations (CDOs) have been subject of extensive research in the last decades. Even if proving successful in reducing the environmental impact [1], such operations suffer from a well-known drawback: the ... -
Fuel-efficient trajectories traffic synchronization
(2019-03)
Article
Open AccessContinuous descent operations (CDOs) with required times of arrival (RTA) have been identified as a potential solution for reducing the environmental footprint of aviation in the terminal maneuvering area without compromising ... -
Controller-Pilot Data Link Communications Display oriented to multiple Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems pilots
(2019-02)
Article
Open AccessA Controller-Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC) interface oriented to Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) pilots was implemented as part of a synthetic task environment aimed to test the NtoM concept of operations ... -
NtoM: a concept of operations for pilots of multiple remotely piloted aircraft
(2019-02)
Article
Open AccessThe concept of operations proposed here pursues the feasibility, from a human factors perspective, of having a single pilot/aircrew controlling several remotely piloted aircraft systems at once in non-segregated airspace. ... -
On-the-fly olive tree counting using a UAS and cloud services
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2019-02-01)
Article
Open AccessUnmanned aerial systems (UAS) are becoming a common tool for aerial sensing applications. Nevertheless, sensed data need further processing before becoming useful information. This processing requires large computing power ... -
The ARCHADE: ubiquitous supercomputing for robotics. Part I: philosophy
(2019-04-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this work, we introduce Ubiquitous Supercomputing for robotics with the objective of opening our imagination to the development of new powerful heterogeneous multi-robot systems able to perform all kind of missions. ... -
Linear holding for airspace flow programs: a case study on delay absorption and recovery
(2018-08-07)
Article
Open AccessThis paper presents a method to introduce linear holding to flights affected by Airspace Flow Program (AFP) initiatives. Trajectories are optimized at their planning stage in such a way that the program performance is ... -
Conflict-free trajectory optimization with target tracking and conformance monitoring
(2018-05-01)
Article
Open AccessThis paper proposes an optimization framework that computes conflict-free optimal trajectories in dense terminal airspace, while continuously monitoring trajectory conformance in an effort to improve predictability. The ... -

(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2018-10-30)
Article
Open AccessUnmanned Aircraft Systems (UASs), together with the miniaturisation of computers, sensors, and electronics, offer new remote sensing applications. However, there is a lack of hardware and software support to effectively ... -
Assessment of the North European free route airspace deployment
(2018-09-07)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyFree Route Airspace is an operational concept for the modernization of the airspace, addressed to improving the efficiency of the flights. It also aims at the environmental friendly performance area by reducing the emissions ... -
Towards high performance robotic computing
(2018-09-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyEmbedding a robot with a companion computer is becoming a common practice nowadays. Such computer is installed with an operatingsystem, often a Linux distribution. Moreover, Graphic Processing Units (GPUs) can be embedded ... -
Including linear holding in air traffic flow management for flexible delay handling
(2017-10)
Article
Open AccessThis paper introduces a strategy to include linear holding into air traffic flow management initiatives, together with the commonly used ground holding and airborne holding measures. In this way, flow management performance ...
