Research on Control Positions Allocation Based on Controller Workload

Abstract

With the rapid development of the civil aviation industry, more and more aircraft sorties operate within limited airspace resources. It is necessary to finely manage the equipment resources of sectors/control areas and control units to ensure the safety of aircraft operations. In order to ensure the safety of the control operation, each job of the control position of the air command should be reasonably allocated to achieve the purpose of optimizing the allocation of control resources. Firstly, the factors that affect the control positions for air command and the various components that constitute the workload of the controller are studied. Then, the three-scale Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is used to determine the weight of each factor that affects the position allocation. It is to establish the workload system that affects the control position allocation. Finally, a control position allocation method for air command based on the workload of the controller is proposed in the case of ensuring the safety of the control operation.
