Robust Airport Gate Assignment Based on the Analysis of Flight Arrival Time

At present, hub airport is facing a lot of emergency situations, e.g., the management of irregular flight, which affects the sustainable development of the airport. Most of the methods for evaluating the robustness of airport gate assignment have been proposed by giving an independent evaluation function based on their experience, and thus, subjective factors are involved in varying degrees. Therefore, this paper puts forward an objective evaluation method based on the analysis of airport flight arrival, which gives a digital transformation strategy for the airport resource scheduling. A novel evaluation method based on data analysis of flight arrival time, and a mathematical model are formulated accordingly. In order to solve the proposed NP-hard problem, a new hybrid genetic algorithm combined with a heuristic algorithm is designed. In numerical experiments, the actual flight data of an international hub airport are used to analyze and verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. The results showed the advantages in scheme stability, operating cost savings, and risk reduction of the proposed method.
