2- Data:
A runway system is to service arrivals and departures. The common approach path
is 7 miles long for all aircraft. During a particular interval of time the
runway is serving only two types of aircraft, a Type A with an approach speed of
120 miles per hour and a Type B with an approach speed of 90 miles per hour.
The arrival and departure profile information for these aircraft is given in
Table 1. The air traffic separation rules in effect are given in Table 2.
Table 1. Approach and Departure Time Table 2. Separation Rules
and Distance Profiles
(Time in Sec.)
Table 2. Separation Rules
During the period of time to be analyzed an ordered arrival queue of a B,A,A,
B, and A approach the runway. An identical ordered departure queue is awaiting
clearance to take-off.
