3차원의 공간을 비행하는 항공기의 항행은 조종사가 직접 지상의 지형지물을 참조하며 비행하는 시각비행과 지상의 항행안전시설로부터 무선신호를 받아 비행하는 계기비행으로 구분되어 발전되었다. 현재 계기비행을 수행하기 위한 계기비행절차 수립에 기반이 되는 항행안전무선시설은 기존의 VOR(VHF Omni-directional Range), ILS(Instrument Landing System) 등의 지상기반 항행안전무선시설에서 GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System)를 이용한 위성기반 항행으로 전환을 목표로 하고 있으며 항행체제 또한 기존의 Fix to Fix 항행체제에서 RNAV(Area Navigation) 체제로 전환되고 있는 추세이다. 계기비행절차는 항공기가 활주로를 이륙하여 항로로 진입하기 위한 계기출발절차(SID), 항로절차(Enroute), 항로에서 목적 공항의 지정된 활주로에 설정된 접근절차(Approach)로 인도하는 도착절차(STAR), 지정된 활주로에 착륙하기 위한 접근절차로 구분될 수 있으며 본문에서는 GNSS를 기반으로 하는 RNAV 절차(RNAVGNSS)에 대한 개괄적인 소개, 설계요건 및 RNAVGNSS 계기비행절차를 성공적으로 이행하기 위한 절차이행모델, RNAVGNSS 절차 수립에 중요하게 고려해야할 사항 등에 대하여 소개하도록 한다.

In response to the recent surge in aviation demand, major airports and aviation authorities continue to make efforts to formulate arrival and approach procedures that take into account efficient aircraft separation, noise and environmental issues of carbon (CO2) emissions. In order to ensure efficient traffic control and environmental issues, as a result, a new concept Trombone, Point Merge, etc. have been introduced and widely used in the domestic airspace. However, these new concept procedures which do not properly reflect the characteristics of the aircraft operation performance and the FMS vertical descent guidance hinder flight efficiency as well as bring in turn negative factors such as level-off flight and the use of drag device at the busiest phase of the flight descent operation, like the Continuous Descent Operation (CDO). Accordingly, throughout modification the current Standard Terminal Arrival Route (STAR) and Instrument Approach Procedure(IAP) that reflect the aircraft descent performance and the FMS guidance, the flight operation safety and efficiency is expected to be improved eventually. We herewith analyze and propose the way of improving flight efficiency in the arrival operation procedure by supplementary modification which consequently contribute to the aviation industry international competitiveness.

The continuous increase in air traffic emphasizes the importance of capacity calculation. Research on the calculation method of Terminal Control Area (TMA) capacity has been treated as a partial aspect of the airspace sector capacity or has been limitedly studied. This study aims to propose a mathematical model for calculating TMA capacity, taking into account the Standard Terminal Arrival Route (STAR), separation standards, TMA entry speed, and runway threshold passing speed. The proposed model has the advantage of being able to calculate the instantaneous arrival capacity, which has not been noted in previous studies, along with the throughput. Additionally, it is meaningful as the model can easily calculate the arrival capacity of the TMA considering airport construction, runway expansion, or new procedures.

In most countries, instrument flight procedures are designed by applying one of the following standards: the International Aviation Organization's DOC 8168, Air Navigation Services and Operation Procedures (PANS-OPS), or the US Federal Aviation Administration's TERPS, Terminal Procedures. In particular, the circling approach procedure has many differences between the two standards, and the US terminal procedure (TERPS) has become more complicated since 2013 by applying expanded standards depending on altitude. The circling approach procedures are more risky than straight-in approach procedures because it involves maneuvering the aircraft close to the ground at low energy for landing. In order to accurately understand these differences, this study provides to distinguish by what criteria the circling approach procedure is designed according to individual domestic airports in Korea, to calculate the radius for the range of circling approach areas that guarantee minimum obstacle avoidance during circling approach maneuvers, and to present methods for performing safe circling approach procedures.

In many countries the principle of shielding is employed to permit a more logical approach to restricting new construction and prescribing obstacle marking and lighting. It also reduces the number of cases of new construction requiring review by authorities. Shielding principles are employed when some object, an existing building or natural terrain, already penetrates above one of the obstacle limitation surfaces described in Annex 14. If it is considered that the nature of an object is such that its presence may be permanent, then additional objects within a specified area around it may be permitted to penetrate the surface without being considered as obstacle. The shielding effect of immovable obstacles laterally in final approach and missed approach areas is more uncertain. In certain circumstances, it nay be advantageous to preserve existing unobstructed cross section areas, particularly when the obstacle is close to the runway. This would guard against future changes in either approach or take-off climb area specifications or the adoption of a turned take-off procedure.

'Visual segment surface' means a surface that extends from the missed approach point of non precision approaches (or the decision altitude location for approaches with vertical guidance and precision approaches) to the threshold to facilitate the identification of and protection from obstacles in this visual segment of the approach. Validation is the necessary final quality assurance step in the procedure design process, prior to publication. The purpose of validation is the verification of all obstacle and navigation data, and assessment of flyability of the procedure. This paper shows how to apply the protection for the visual segment of the approach procedure, and the results of the validation for visual segment surface conducted at an airport.

Along with the remarkable advances in GNSS technology, SBAS further enhances the accuracy and integrity of GNSS location information and derives improvement in the safety and efficiency of air traffic management from reducing GNSS location errors, induced by passing through the ionosphere and atmosphere, to less than three meters. In this regard, ICAO specifies the standards of SBAS signals and recommends every party to phase in by 2025; and it is foreseeable that SBAS APV-I and CAT-I will be provided in South Korea by its undertaking the development of KASS, a Korean SBAS. The purpose of the study is to design SBAS APV-I procedure on the basis of the runway 15L of Incheon International Airport and conduct obstacle assessment according to PAN-OPS Doc. 8168, focusing on the usability and usefulness of SBAS APV-I. The results show that SBAS APV-I will provide better decision height compared to other PBN RNP approach procedures such as LNAV and Baro-VNAV at the Incheon International Airport.

In response to the recent surge in aviation demand, major airport and aviation authorities continue to make efforts to formulate arrival procedures that take into account efficient aircraft separation, noise and environmental issues related to carbon (CO₂) emissions. In order to ensure efficient traffic control and environmental issues, as a result, a new concept Trombone, Point Merge, etc. have been introduced and widely used. However, these new concept incisions are becoming a factor that hinders operational efficiency and stability due to the restricted domestic airspace such as military airspace and excessive constraints of altitude, speed, etc. which do not reflect the concept of continuous descent operation and eventually needs to be modified to make continuous descent operation as feasible as possible. We herewith analyze and propose the way of improving flight safety and efficiency in the arrival operation procedure by supplementary modification which consequently contribute to the aviation industry international competitiveness.

In case of KOREA, many difficulties are expected for pilots to adapt to the flight operational environment changes which we will meet suddenly in anytime of the future as the operating plan for GPS is not fully prepared yet. It is because GPS operation is rather difficult compared to other navigation equipments, and it takes much time and experience to be familiar with GPS instrument approach procedure. First of all, it is keenly required to establish GPS instrument approach procedure for the local airports to be familiar with GPS instrument approach procedure. We would like to introduce GPS instrument approach procedure for the Cheju International Airport as a basic model to help you to understand it.
