  1. Satellites enabling the integration in non-segregated airspace of UAS in Europe Dipl. Phys. Mirsad Delić, Dr. Henk HesselinkDipl. Ing. Frank Morlang, Dr. Dirk-Roger SchmittAT-One EEIG

  2. UAS in non-segregated airspaceConcept validation through simulation

  3. State of the art UAS usage Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) in non-segregated airspace through real-time simulation of Beyond Line of Sight (BLOS) scenarios.

  4. Airspace usage concept validation The project SINUE investigates satellite aspects (BLOS operations)

  5. Integration concept Avionics System ( NAV / FMS / AFCS / FTS) Relay Other aircraft Comm delay relay C³ link strobe lights TCAS II detect & avoid C-UAS VHF COM SSR transponder direct C³ link telephone UAS Control Station Air Traffic Control

  6. Satellite Communication BLOS • Within the simulation architecture, a satellite model is included • In the underlying scenarios, several satellite issues will be covered: • temporary comm failure because of satellite constellation • total comm failure • C2 failure • time delay • bandwidth for real-time surveillance mission • cost benefit study

  7. Simulation facilities NARSIM, MUST, GCS Emergency procedures ATC Interface Separation

  8. Architecture of communication

  9. Simulation Set-up • Communication • Telephone communication between controller and UAS pilot if requested • Simulated Radio Telephony • Radio telephony for the controller / pseudo pilot voice communication • Specially designed intercommunication device operation over wire link • Communication delay for satellite link is implemented

  10. Simulation Set-up • UAS Pilot Pseudo Pilots ATC UAS Pilot

  11. Validation Scenarios • Evaluation of the UAS integration concept: • Normal operations • Avoidance of severe weather • Emergency Operations: • Standard emergency procedures: • Comm Loss • Thrust Loss • Loss of separation

  12. The mission

  13. Workload of Controllers • UAS-pilot to ATCO interactions • Instantaneous Self Assessment questionnaires • NASA Task Load Index methodology • Introduction of 1 UAS into airspace • Introduction of 2 UAS into airspace

  14. Workload of Controllers (USICO project) 2 UASs

  15. Results (1) • General No special problems with UAS in airspace Integration concept allows treatment of UAS like normal aircraft Relay C-UAS UAS Control Station Air Traffic Control

  16. Results (2) • CommunicationTelephone comm between controller and UAS pilot could be a benefit compared to manned aircraft UAS Control Station Air Traffic Control

  17. Results (3) Workload: • Workload increased slightly • Due to unknown behaviour • Later on workload got to normal

  18. Results (4) • Detect & Avoid Detect & Avoid is still an issue to be solved with highest priority

  19. Missions are feasible in near future
