Conflict Probe Operational Evaluation and Benefits Assessment
Overview Air traffic controllers currently rely on structured routes and traffic organization for managing separation problems. However, even in today’s structured air traffic control environment, human limitations in the rate and accuracy with which they can extrapolate aircraft positions can result in late or unnecessary ATC interventions to resolve conflicts. This paper presents results from (a) recent field evaluations of URET, (b) analysis activities using real traffic scenarios from Indianapolis Center, and (c) a controller-in-the-loop simulation study of the URET being used in a traffic environment with reduced structure relative to current practice. The paper analyzes these results to describe how Conflict Probe can help reduce the restrictions that are imposed on flights.
