Abstract
A method for managing air traffic in one or more sectors of a controlled airspace is disclosed, including defining a first sector configuration of at least two adjacent sectors in the airspace, each sector being assigned to a station controller in an air traffic control station and a communication channel. The method includes monitoring, for each sector, an anticipated level of air traffic controller workload over a selected time interval, and detecting a difference greater than a pre-selected threshold in anticipated levels of air traffic controller workload in the two adjacent sectors over the selected time interval. The method includes redefining the first sector configuration into a second sector configuration of the two adjacent sectors, such that the difference in controller workload in the two adjacent sectors is below the threshold, and then implementing the second sector configuration.
