12 Pocees escibe in tis epot ave been incopoate into Spectm Pospecto, an atomate tool evelope by Te MITRE Copoation s Cente fo Avance Aviation System Development (CAASD to pefom spectm analysis sties fo te Feeal Aviation Aministation (FAA [,,3,4]. Te optimiation pocees escibe in tis epot ae esigne to enable Spectm Pospecto to follow istance-base cannel assignment les as accately as possible witot ecessive nning time.. Backgon In te ATS envionment, pilots se aibone aios (ARs to commnicate wit tei esignate gon-base aios (GRs, wic ae se by ai taffic contolles. Eac cicit opeates witin a SV, a tee-imensional volme of aispace wose oiontal coss section at any altite as te same cicla o polygonal footpint on te sface of a speical Eat. Aicaft witin te same SV commnicate wit te same GR on a given cannel. Te GR oes not necessaily lie in te footpint of its SV. Becase spectm is a scace esoce, cannels ae ese, constaine by cetain stingent les tat mst be followe to pevent intefeence between te aios in one cicit an tose in ote cicits assigne te same cannel. Te poblem of etemining wete two cicits can be cocannel, i.e., assigne te same cannel, can be pose as an optimiation poblem involving cicles an polygons on te sface of a spee.. Appoac Becase te / atio as it stans is a complicate fnction (i.e., an invese tigonometic fnction of fo vaiables (te latites an longites of te two aicaft positions, attempting to fin a global minimm in a staigtfowa manne leas to a vey inefficient an cmbesome matematical pocee. Mc of te complication is e to te fact tat te atio is compise of GCDs on te sface of te spee. We ealie tat one possible simplifying step was to poject te components involve in te atio to te comple plane tog steeogapic pojection. Steeogapic pojection is a viable appoac becase cicles on te spee ae pojecte to cicles in te comple plane, allowing s to etain te simple stcte of te cicle, wic is ccial in simplifying te minimiation pocess. Fte, steeogapic pojection enables epessing te coal lengt between points on te spee in tems of istances between points in te comple plane. Ts, a atio of coal lengts can be epesse in tis way, an it tns ot, minimie in an efficient manne. Bt in tis epot we sow tat te soltion to te poblem of minimiing te atio of coal lengts is also te soltion to te actal poblem of minimiing te atio of GCDs. In tems of fining te minimm GCD between two SVs on te spee, we wee able to fin an efficient pocee sing vecto analysis to obtain a close-fom soltion to te poblem of fining te minimm GCD fom a point on te spee to an ac of a geat cicle. Using tis eslt an a feate of intesecting geat cicles, we wee able to fin an efficient pocee fo fining te minimm GCD between any two SVs on te spee. -

13 Use of Steeogapic Pojection to Fin Minimm Geat- Cicle Distance Ratios Tis section fist escibes te poblem of cocannel intefeence (CCI, wic gives ise to te nee fo te istance-atio calclations in tis epot. It ten escibes an efficient pocee fo fining minimm / GCD atios tog te se of steeogapic pojection.. Cocannel Intefeence Fige - sows an eample of a sitation wee CCI col aise between two A/G aio cicits opeating in neigboing SVs. In te eample, te esie cicit s AR eceives not only te esie signal fom its own GR, bt also a potentially intefeing nesie signal tansmitte by te AR of te nesie cicit. Tis constittes a case of potential ai-to-ai intefeence. Te esie cicit, of cose, can also intefee wit te nesie cicit, altog intefeence in tat iection is not sown in te fige. Ai-to-gon, gon-to-ai, o gon-to-gon intefeence migt also occ between te two cicits bt is not sown in te fige eite. Te altites of te aicaft above te eat ae sally small enog, in elation to te oiontal etent of te SV, tat te actal lengts of te signal pats ae vitally ientical to te associate GCDs. Weneve ealing wit SVs, only a oiontal slice at a given altite is consiee, an te bonay of te oiontal slice is pojecte to lie as a footpint on te spee as sown in Fige -. Any fte efeence to SVs will be to tei footpints. Also, all istances between any two points in te oiontal slices, egaless of altite, ae mease along te sface of te eat sing tei footpints as sown in Fige -.

Une tese conitions, te les fo avoiing CCI can be epesse as istance-base cannel-assignment constaints. Pio to te evelopment of te pocee in tis epot, a wost-case / GCD atio was se, becase attempting to fin te etemm soltion was too comple an time-consming. Fige -3 sows te vales se to compte tis wost-case / atio. Te enominato is te GCD between te GR an te fatest point in te esie SV, an te nmeato te minimm GCD between te esie an nesie SVs.

Tese s-cicles can be eite geat s-cicles (i.e., tose wit cente at [,,R] o small s-cicles (i.e., tose wit centes elsewee. Pojections of geat cicles contain te oigin of te comple plane in tei inteios.

An eception to te sitation wee te sie of an s-polygon is pojecte to an ac of a cicle in te comple plane is wen te sie lies along a meiian, i.e., wen te two vetices of te sie ave te same longite. In tis case te pojection of te s-polygon sie is a line segment. In tis epot we eal wit te moe pevalent case wee te sie of an s-polygon oes not lie along a meiian.

Te secon step is to sow tat te minimm soltion lies on te bonaies of te esie an nesie SVs..3.

Te lengt of te coesponing ac, i.e., te GCD between te enpoints of te ac, is S Rα R sin. Te atio of GCDs can be epesse as: R G G ( P, P ( P, P R sin R sin D D ( P, P R ( P, P R sin sin D D ( P, P R ( P, P R (7 Witot loss of geneality, we can assme tat te spee as nit ais an tat te poblem can be simplifie by otating te nesie s-cicle so tat its cente on te spee is at te Sot Pole, sing te eqations in Appeni D.

A feate of te Desie Containment Ac is tat a line awn fom any selecte point on te bonay of te esie cicle to te cente of te nesie cicle will intesect it. Te point of intesection is, in fact, te closest point on te nesie cicle to te selecte point on te esie cicle.

Tis le, to pevent ajacent-cannel intefeence (ACI, is efee to as te ajacent-cannel assignment le. Te eason wy minimiing te GCD between sevice volme footpints on te spee applies to te fist application is te following. In te case wee te aio site is at te cente of te esie s-cicle, te enominato of te / atio is a constant eqal to te ais of te s-cicle, an ts minimiing te / atio eqies only minimiing te nesie GCD. 5.

Minimiing Geat-Cicle Distance Between Two s-polygons an Between an s-cicle an an s-polygon Te appoac fo minimiing te GCD between two s-polygons is base on te fact tat any two geat cicles intesect as sown in Fige 5-. It can be seen tat te GCD between te two geat cicles is monotonic as one moves away fom te point of intesection in eite iection. Fo geat-cicle acs, Fige 5-3 illstates tat te minimm occs at an enpoint of one of te acs, an wol be te sotest istance between an enpoint of one of te acs an te ote ac. We ave evelope a vey efficient point-to-ac algoitm, eplaine in te net section, to etemine te minimm istance between a point etenal to an ac of a geat cicle an tat ac. Given tat pocee an given any two acs of geat cicles, an appoac to fining te minimm istance between te acs wol be te following. Using te point-to-ac algoitm, fin te minimm istance between eac enpoint of eac ac an te ote ac. Te smallest of tese fo minimm istances wol be te minimm GCD between te two acs. If it is fon tat no sotest GCD ac fom any enpoint of eite ac intesects te ote ac, ten te sotest GCD wol occ between a pai of enpoints fom te two acs as sown in Fige

57 To fin te minimm GCD between two s-polygons, te minimm GCD fom eac sie (ac of one of te s-polygons is fon to te ote s-polygon, an ten te GCD fom eac sie of te ote s-polygon is fon to te fist s-polygon. Te minimm of te GCDs ove all pais of sies of te two s-polygons is te soltion. Te appoac to fin te minimm GCD between an s-cicle an an s-polygon also elies on te point-to-ac algoitm. In tis case te sotest GCD fom te cente of te cicle to eac sie of te s-polygon is fon, an te ais of te s-cicle is sbtacte. Te smallest of tese minimms is te soltion. Fige 5-.
