With air traffic movements at a high level, techniques to assist air traffic management using computers are being investigated. One technique in particular being studied is the early adjustment of the speed of arriving aircraft so that the rate of flow near to the airports is closely matched to landing capacity. A Speed Control Adviser has been developed which allocates a landing time to each inbound aircraft. Once the estimated landing time is known, the speed the aircraft must fly needs to be calculated. This cannot be done directly and interpolation using a suitable polynomial approximation is used. This memorandum investigates four polynomials and examines their effectiveness at providing a good estimate with minimum computations. Great Britain. (FR)
