UAVs in ATM a cooperative approach By Göran Lindqvist LFV Group LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
An ATS' providers and an ATCO' view and involvement in future UAV operationsUAV integration with other traffic into non segregated airspace
LFV and SAAB joint Simulation studies & Workshopsperformed 2006/07 LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
Cooperation • Several actors jointly contributing in development of UAVs in non-segregated airspace focusing on newest ATM technology LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
UAV och ATM 2020 Optimal operational usage/ business case ATM system development 2010 CASTOR UAV DEMO 2005 UAV development 2005 2010 2020 LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
UAV business opportunities • Cost effective • Easy to operate • Long endurance • Certified for all types of airspace • New civil markets LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
Missions LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
Civil UAV (no pic onboard!!) • Well developed Autonomy • Limited a/c performances • Customer is on-line to receive its “products” • Like to operate anywhere • Asks for ATM flexibility LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
First Product TUMAV UAV Certification Rules 0.3 UAV Certification Rules 2.0 UAV Certification Rules 1.0 Towards a larger UAV Vision Single European Sky NEURON UCAV Gripen Updates • Euro UAV Demo 08 Euro UAV Demo Castor UAV Demo Sturup Demo 2004 2006 2008 2010 2015 LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
The real challenge is not to make UAV’s fly,but to qualify them for operating in controlled airspace. LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider

OSED for the Castor UAV Demo • Operational Service and Environmental Description(A joint LFV and SAAB doc.) • Simulations, Workshops and validation studies: Sturup UAV Demos LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
A Parallel process • Rail #1: UAV Certification process • Stimulate and Motivate close contact with the Swedish Civil Regulator Authority and the Military Flight Safety Inspectorate • Rail #2: Platform and Infrastructure development • Rapid prototyping, definition of onboard and ground software architecture and functional breakdown, simulations and demo´s LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
Simulation/Workshop executions At Malmö-Sturup by ANS Development unit In the former SATSA, now The Nordic ATS Academy building (“Entry Point North”) LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
Objectives • Validate operational concept enabling routine flight with UAVs in all types of air-classes • Gap analysis of impact on the ATM Community and on the UAV Airworthiness process, and suggest potential solutions that should be considered. • Identify how further developments of the ATM infrastructure and UAV technology can improve UAV operability. • Demonstrate in a simulated environment all phases that will demonstrated in flight within the 2007/2008 Castor UAV Demo:s.

Observations from first Workshop • On ground: • Taxiing difficulties, PIC visual ”separations”, phone connection ATC-UCS? • In the air: • Visual holdings? Re-clearances? Approach-procedures and minima? ILS or GPS? Visual contact with RWY? • Failures: data-link, comms, engine, etc; which procedure to follow!? Signal lamp?

Validation issues Simulation/WS2 + 3 * ”Sence & Avoid” functionality * Collision Avoidance – conflict management in C- resp G-airspace * TCAS/ACAS for detection of other traffic * ADS-B functionalities incl 4D trajectories * CPDLC is the service enabling ATC to directly access the UAV LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider

Unfamiliar situations to ATM • UAV forces new solutions to so far unknown behaviours of civil traffic • The grade of automation in UAVs makes it necessary for ATM to treat UAV differently • Large numbers of simultaneous UAV operating in same area; Long endurance… • Requests changed clearances to other areas and routes then was flight-planned • Data link failures; Engine and avionic failures LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
UAVs -like flying ”Virgins” Innocent Curious Very well equipped High precision Will bridge us into a new era of civil and military ATM LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
UAV – enablers for new ATM concept 2020 2005 LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
UAV - enablers for new ATM concept • Increased automation and ASAS functions • Including elements • ADS-B incl. 4D trajectories • C DLC commands • Graphic exchange of route requests and changes P U LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
Vital injection UAV can be catalyser for a fast move into ASAS visionA vision: can ATM providers down streams take an active role in also operating UAVs…? LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
Be sure, UAV will share the Sky.Make it an opportunity for ASAS functionalities !Thank you for your attention ! LFV Group The Swedish Air Navigation Service Provider
