Arrival traffic sequancing with fuzzy logic method

Today, the increase in the demand for air transport causes an increase in air traffic. In this case, more air traffic needs to be carried out safely, regularly and quickly. It is important to correctly and fairly order the landing traffic in order to reduce the delaying, especially in the air due to heavy traffic. In this study, it is aimed to sort the arrival traffic with fuzzy logic method. Speed, distance, altitude parameters were used for sequencing. Air Traffic Simulation Laboratory in Eskişehir Technical University Air Traffic Control Department was used to collect traffic data. The current sequencing of the arrivals traffic in the terminal control area in the simulator and the sequencing results obtained from the fuzzy logic method were compared. It was concluded that both traffic ranking results overlap with each other. This study will contribute to the literature by using the fuzzy logic method in the field of air traffic control.
