Abstract:

According to the complex state of traffic network of airport-ground taxiway and the terminal area,and based on the researching of entropy theory,the definition and calculation method of air-ground traffic network complexity are proposed, Based on the complex network theory,the quantitative description of air-ground
traffic network complexity is realized by maximum entropy modeling. Finally,a new airspace structure optimization strategy is proposed based on the complexity of network structure. This method has been validated and its feasibility is analyzed with the Beijing Capital International Airport Terminal airspace data. It can provide a reference for the terminal airspace structure optimization.

Key words: complex network, network complexity, maximum entropy, airspace optimization
