Research on Operation of UAVs in Non-isolated Airspace

摘要

In order to explore the safe operation of UAVs in non-segregated airspace, a collision risk model for cylindrical UAVs based on conflict areas was constructed and the risk of conflict between manned and unmanned aerial vehicles was researched. According to the results of risk analysis, a strategy for solving the conflict of aircraft is proposed, and the risk assessment experiment of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in non-isolated airspace conflict is carried out. The results show that under the experimental conditions, large unmanned aerial vehicles equipped with ADS-B, TCAS and other airborne sensing systems will indeed interfere with other aircraft in airspace when they enter non-isolated airspace. Especially when the number of aircraft in airspace is large, the automatic avoidance system of UAV will increase the avoidance time and trigger the safety alarm, but the safety level is still acceptable. This indicates that it is relatively safe for UAVs to enter non-isolated airspace under limited conditions. The results can be used as a reference for the safe operation of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in non-isolated airspace.
