Fuel cost accounts for 40 percent of the operating cost of an airline. Fuel cost can be minimized by planning a flight on optimized routes. The routes can be optimized by searching best connections based on the cost function defined by the airline. The most common algorithm that used to optimize route search is Dijkstra’s. Dijkstra’s algorithm produces

The basic procedures used by most airlines to compile their flight plans are very similar, and are by no means as simple as they could be. When a choice of routes exists it is the normal practice to compile a series of flight plans from which the one giving the most advantageous route in the prevailing weather conditions is selected.

Flight planning and guidance features for an UAV Flight Management Computer
2016 IEEE 21st International Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation (ETFA), 2016Nowadays Air Traffic Management (ATM) requires high accuracy performance to respect time constraints at specific waypoints and to sequence the traffic flow especially while climbing and landing, in order to increase reliability and safety. Current civil aviation guidance systems proposed real-time control laws to track the reference trajectories ...

Flight path planning simulation for VTUAV
11th IEEE International Conference on Control & Automation (ICCA), 2014This paper develops a path planning simulation method in AGI software platform for multirotor UAVs in a 3D environment with avoiding the obstacles is presented. A multi-RRT (rapidly exploring random tree, RRT) algorithm is applied to compute the preliminary flight paths.

Discrete Speed in Vertical Flight Planning
2015Vertical flight planning concerns assigning optimal cruise altitude and speed to each trajectory-composing segment, such that the fuel consumption is minimized, and the arrival time constraints are satisfied. The previous work that assigns continuous speed to each segment leads to prohibitively long computation time.

Variable Speed in Vertical Flight Planning
2016Vertical flight planning concerns assigning cruise speed and altitude to segments that compose a trajectory, such that the fuel consumption is minimized and the time constraints are satisfied. The fuel consumption over each segment is usually given as a black-box function depending on aircraft speed, weight, and altitude. Without time consideration, it
