Title Flight Path Optimization for Minimizing Emissions and Avoiding Weather Hazard

Abstract

In this paper we present a methodology to deter-mine the optimal path of an airplane that minimizes the emis-sions of pollutants. The methodology is based on a finite state automaton representation of the problem, and the output of the automaton is used to compute the objective function. Experi-mental results show an example of optimization of a trajectory and the comparison with a real airplane trajectory.
