    Abstract
  • Aircraft wake are a couple of counter-rotating vortices generated by a flying aircraft, which can be very hazardous to a follower aircraft. The detection of it is regarded as a key issue for airport capacity improvement and air traffic safety management. To this end, we constructed a Lidar detection based aircraft wake vortex parameter-retrieval system, which can be used to retrieve the vortex-core positions and circulations from detected data. Furthermore, dynamics, scattering and Lidar echo simulation modules were built to validate the parameter-retrieval algorithms. Results show that the proposed system performs well and runs steadily, which can serve as a good tool for aircraft wake vortex characterization, prediction, and is very helpful to establish dynamic wake separation in air traffic management.
