In an effort to improve airport traffic operation near jumbo jets, an airport trailing vortex warning system (ATVWS) was developed to predict trailing vortex turbulence. The ATVWS consists of a computer simulator which is compatible with a vortex sensor such as a laser Doppler velocimeter or an acoustic radar. A study of the traffic in one of the ten busiest airports, Atlanta Municipal Airport, provided information on traffic patterns of a statistical nature. With this information, airport traffic patterns can be studied and hazard statistics developed. Based on a careful study of this simulation model, requirements for the development and testing of an ATVWS can be accurately specified.
