OPTAMOS - A Multi Airport, Mulit Runway Arrival Manager

When you do not want to compromise your safety oriented service provision while increasing the throughput efficiency of your airport(s), a planning tool that automatically creates arrival sequences becomes a very welcome aid.

OPTAMOS is an advanced tool that gives advisories to controllers and pilots (time over waypoint and RNAV transition routes) in order to achieve an optimised arrival sequence. In contrast to other arrival management systems, OPTAMOS uses multiple (about 10-20) RNAV transition routes between the metering fix and the runway for absorbing necessary delays in the TMA. In the case that the delays cannot be absorbed within the TMA, time-to-lose and holding advisories are created. Frequent direct approaches can be accomodated by the concept of virtual metering fixes defining a short-cut to the 10 NM point.

For establishing and optimising the sequence, the following parameters are taken into account:

* the necessary spacing (DLI = determined landing interval) at the runway threshold
* total sequence length
* wake vortex category (WTC) separations
* aircraft priority lists based on callsign and company
* slots for departing traffic
* runway configuration changes

By using a suitable layout of the RNAV routes, OPTAMOS can handle multiple runway and multiple airport configurations.

Frequent statistics give the airport manager the tools to overview the trend and changes in the traffic throughput so that correct measures can be taken to further optimise the processes and procedures for increasing the air traffic throughput and safety
