Abstract :
A calculation model of airspace utilization rate is proposed based on flight time, the space and capacity of airspace, in order to assess the airspace usage effectively. First, based on the time division multiplexing characteristic of airspace, a definition and a common computing formula of the airspace utilization rate are introduced; Second, the computing formula of the airspace utilization rate is applied to the flight level and the airspace is quantified by considering the flight time, the space and capacity synthetically; Finally, the computing formula of route utilization rate is obtained. The computational example shows the model is valid.
