Abstract (en)
Methods and systems for an aircraft entering a terminal radar approach control (TRACON) airspace to identify a number of feasible target traffic for a paired approach for the aircraft. Traffic data is filtered to identify a plurality of neighbor traffic that are entering the TRACON airspace or within the TRACON airspace when the aircraft is entering the TRACON airspace and estimating, concurrently, for each neighbor traffic of the plurality of neighbor traffic: a trajectory, a traffic arrival time at an ideal location for a respective paired approach with the aircraft, a spacing interval between the neighbor traffic and the aircraft for the respective paired approach, and a respective target location for the aircraft to begin the respective paired approach, as a function of the spacing interval. Based on the estimations, the method identifies feasible, marginally feasible, and infeasible targets, and displays this information in an intuitive lateral display.
