Abstract

Nowadays air traffic density increased, thus existing air traffic management systems are not able to manage the massive capacities of air traffic perfectly. To solve problems in current air traffic management systems, the aviation industry focused on a new concept called Free flight. Nonetheless, the most important challenge in current air traffic management and especially in free flight is conflict detection and resolution between different aircrafts. So far a number of methods have been presented in order to automate air traffic management using multi agent systems technology. However, there has been a little discussion about the efficiency of these methods. Also, there has not been created a comprehensive comparison of these methods. In this paper, we presented a clear framework to categorization and comparing different multi agent models for conflict detection and resolution in air traffic management. Then, using this framework, we evaluated various proposed models. Our comparison framework is based on characteristic such as: agent selection (the entity which selected as Agent), agent’s actions, agents’ interaction method in the process of conflict detection and resolution, the strategy used in agents’ implementation, type of the multi agent system (pure multi agent system or combined), conflict detection method, conflict resolution method, Plan Dimensions, Maneuvers, and management the multiple aircrafts’ conflict.
