Popis: With the development of global economy and the rapid growth of people's material demand, the sustainable development of air industry needs more and more airspace capacity, so the importance of optimizing available airspace is prominent. Under the background of world aviation industry, after more than 60 years development, the safety level has steadily improved, the total amount of transportation has increased rapidly, the air routes have been enriched and the air traffic capacity has gradually improved. PBN, the performance-based navigation technology is one of the most essential topics in China’s aviation development. Compared to conventional navigation, it has witnessed significant benefit in PBN operation, such as less fuel cost, shorter route range and lighter workload of the controllers. This paper introduces the basic concept of PBN, and then selects three typical routes through simulation software, compares the characteristics of PBN and traditional navigation in practice, and illustrates the advantages of PBN procedures by means of data and charts.
