Keywords: air traffic management, airborne surveillance, self-separation, air corridor

Decentralized separation control in a high density corridor are discussed. Maneuver strategies, types of the surveillance area, and route structures are investigated through numerical simulations. The results indicate that a common rule with some concession is indispensable to achieve a high density traffic with sufficient safety, efficiency, and least workload.
