Abstract:
Radiotelephony is the means how vital information related to flight and aircraft is exchanged between an ATC controller and a pilot. This information exchange is governed by a special set of language rules and standards called ATC communication phraseology. This phraseology is different from standard English language syntax and grammar therefore any aviator needs a special training on this. Existing phraseology training systems requires the assistance of another party and also phraseology accuracy is not guaranteed since it depends on the reliability of the other party involved. This research proposes a novel approach to an ATC communication simulator based on ontologies which eliminates the requirement of another party involvement during the training process. The proposed research based solution will fully automate the ATC communication training process for pilots while maintaining phraseology accuracy at the maximum.
