ABSTRACT

With the rapid development of the global civil aviation transportation industry, the role of air traffic control is becoming more and more important in order to effectively prevent the collision between aircraft and aircraft, aircraft and obstacles, and maintain and accelerate the air traffic order. A research method based on patent analysis is proposed to study air traffic control technology to understand the development of air traffic control technology. The development of air traffic control technology is discussed from three angles: global patent application trend, application area and patent master technology composition, the development trend and technology distribution of relevant patent applications is analyzed, and the main development direction of air traffic control technology is investigated. According to the analysis, the technical development trend and characteristics in the field of air traffic control technology in the future can be grasped, and the results can provide reference to the development of air traffic control technology in the future.
