摘要：As a kind of ad hoc networks, aeronautical ad hoc networks (AANET) has its own characteristic, which is that nodes in the networks often move along multiple specified lines. Considering this characteristic, we deal with parallel airlines in different height levels of the airspace and work out the clustering coefficient of the AANET, which is one of the key metrics of a complex networks. For two parallel airlines scenario, we give an accurate calculation of its clustering coefficient. For multiple airlines scenario, though accurate calculation can be done by extending the method for two parallel airlines, it needs too much computation. Thus, we give an approximate calculation for the scenario, which is much simpler and the deviation becomes very small when the number of airlines becomes large as shown in numeric results.
