Performance Verification of an Enhanced Traffic Alerting System for RPAS Integration in ATM

摘要

This paper describes the current progress in the development of a Detect And Avoid (DAA) system for application to Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS). Indeed, it is widely recognized that the full exploitation of RPAS, as first step toward an autonomous aircraft, is strictly dependent on the development of a DAA system that performs as safe as an on-board pilot can. In this paper, a specific module of the CIRA full DAA system is described, namely, the component that generates an alert condition for remote pilot or other automatic system intervention. Furthermore, the verification and validation approach and related results are discussed.
