Exploring Aerospace Mobility in the World as a Laboratory

Air Transportation and Air Traffic Management System

Air Traffic Management (ATM) System is one of the essentials and important academic research areas. It is a large-scale and complex socio-technical system, which consists of hardware, software, and human society including many players, e.g. airlines, industries, governments, many operators, and so on. Our studies design the ATM systems, which introduce automation supports for human operators and realize even better safety and efficiency in the operation, and sustainable flights in the world based on a systematic approach combining data science, mathematical modeling, and simulation experiments. Collaborating with global aviation communities including airline companies, airport companies, air navigation service providers, industries, and academic and research organizations, we engage in research and development on the moderation of air traffic congestion at and around large airports, ecologically and economically friendly flights, and designing resilient airspace and air traffic operation in Asia-pacific reasons.

Expanding Mobility Systems into Space and Human Society

ATM system is expanding its target into the space, and also into the human society. Future increase of air transportation demands consist networks of passenger and cargo traffics centered in airports as nodes, and create new demands of the next generation mobility systems. It also activates utilization of very-high altitude airspace and satellite systems. With the backgrounds, our laboratory contributes to developing the field of Airspace Mobility.
