Airspace traffic complexity measures the airspace internal structure objectively, which is one of the main factors on the sector planning. In order to make use of the airspace resource reasonably and balance the workload of air traffic controller, the sector planning problem is studied based on complexity analysis. By considering the airspace structure and air traffic operation status, the sector area, air route structure, route intersection structure, aircraft model mixing ratio and operation combination condition, a new complexity model of sector is given, which can be used to express the air traffic controller’s workload. The sector planning model is built based on the principles of balancing the controller’s workload, and the model is solved by using the growth algorithm. Finally, selecting the airspace of the Pearl River Delta Region as a simulation example indicates the effectiveness of the method.
