  1. 11. Security and Privacy of Controller Pilot Data Link Communication

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Max Wernberg; [2018]
    Keywords : Controller Pilot Data Link Communication; CPDLC; Security; Privacy; Elliptical Curve Cryptography; Protected ACARS; Host Identity Protocol;

    Abstract : Newly implemented technologies within the aviation lack, according to recent studies, built in security measures to protect them against outside interference. In this thesis we study the security and privacy status of the digital wireless Controller Pilot Data Link Communication (CPDLC) used in air traffic management alongside other systems to increase the safety and traffic capacity of controlled airspaces.

  2. 12. Representing Three-Dimensional Airspace on a Two-Dimensional screen : Visualizing altitude information on a radar screen for a decreased cognitive load

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Lukas Lindahl; [2018]
    Keywords : Mental workload; Cognitive load; Fighter controller; Air traffic controller; Visualization; Radar; Intuitiveness;

    Abstract : This study was conducted at the Swedish Defense research agency as an attempt to understand affordances and limitations in visualizing altitude information for fighter controllers. The fighter controllers are subject to large quantities of numerical information from multiple sources simultaneously. READ MORE

  3. 13. Combination of travel time and delay measurements in an urban traffic controller : A case study of Zuidas

    University essay from KTH/Transportvetenskap

    Author : Eduardo Carbajo Fuertes; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Increasing traffic volume in the urban areas is leading to a series of negative effects such as congestion or emission of air pollutants. The city of Amsterdam is no exception to this trend and a sustainable solution is sought in the area of Traffic Management and Intelligent Transportation Systems. READ MORE

  4. 14. Remote Tower Center - Planning Tool

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för datavetenskap (DV)

    Author : Rickard Jonsson; Daniel Tägt; [2017]
    Keywords : Remote Tower; capacity planning; optimization; MVC; Scrum;

    Abstract : Saab has a product, Remote Tower, which allows air traffic controllers to supervise and control an airport remotely. Today an air traffic controller can operate on one airport at the time and switch between airports. The next phase of this system is to allow the air traffic controller to simultaneously control multiple airports, i.e. READ MORE

  5. 15. Effects of Complexity Factors on Controllers Workload in Stockholm Terminal Area

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Elmira Zohrevandi; [2016]
    Keywords : Air traffic complexity; Air traffic controller; Air traffic complexity factors; Stockholm air traffic area; Luftfartsverket; Human automation collaboration; Safe human automation interaction; Air transportation safety; Air traffic controller workload; Inf;

    Abstract : Through a history of more than 50 years, the results of mathematical models have shown that controller workload is being driven by the complexity involved in the airspace environment. Part of this complexity is prompted by the dynamical behavior of traffic patterns. READ MORE
