N2  - Potential cost savings that can be achieved from the introduction of various levels of technological improvements in navigation capability are described. Cost estimates are determined through simulation methodology. The simulation model, designed to measure conflict levels and costs associated with resolving conflicts in procedural airspace, optimizes levels of separation for particular flow rates. Comparison of the simulation model with analytical work found in the literature also is provided. Flow and network characteristics that reflect conditions in the Pacific region have been used in the simulation model to investigate a number of futuristic operating strategies for regions with relatively low air-traffic flow. The scope for substantial annual cost savings, even in such low-traffic regions, is revealed.    Record URL:   http://onlinepubs.trb.org/Onlinepubs/trr/1994/1461/1461-002.pdf<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
