An ATC Simulation Platform based Compass Satellite Navigation System

Based real-time, high precision characteristics of satellite navigation system, the aircraft in flight can be continuous and accurate positioned its location. Therefore the interval width of en-route and the interval separation could be reduced. And the reduced flight time, the increased flights, and the high utilization of airspace could meet the development of airline transportation. Thus the free flight could be achieved in near future. The compass satellite navigation system is established by the Chinese regional navigation and positioning system. The system could provide users around the clock, the clock real-time location services, short message service and precision timing services. According to the compass satellite navigation system, an air traffic control simulation platform based compass satellite navigation system has been proposed in this paper. The structure, functions and the future research fields have been introduced in detail. The research of this paper plays an important role to impel applications of air traffic management based compass navigation satellite system.
