1. A sense-and-avoid system, comprising:

  • a conflict detection module configured to receive a four-dimensional (4-D) trajectory of an aircraft and 4-D constructs representing trajectories of other aircraft or regions from which the aircraft is to maintain separation, wherein the conflict detection module determines if a conflict exists between the 4-D trajectory of the aircraft and the 4-D constructs; and

    a conflict resolution module configured to receive information from a conflict detection module, wherein the conflict resolution module generates a change to the 4-D trajectory of the aircraft to avoid the conflict.
