Human Factors Concerning Unmanned Aircraft Systems in Future Operations
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) play increasingly important roles in many modern militaries. The proven success of the UAVs during the operations in Afghanistan and Iraq has created a demand for UAVs with varying functionalities and capabilities. UAVs are currently performing tasks and playing roles of the manned systems in many mission areas. Although UAVs are limited in meeting all the requir...
متن کاملA Mobile Aircraft Tracking System That Supports Unmanned Aircraft Operations
The integration of unmanned aircraft into the national airspace system requires new methods of ensuring collision avoidance. For unmanned aircraft a capability to ‘detect-and-avoid’ is required to replace the traditional ‘see-andavoid’ performed by pilots. The initial results from testing a Mobile Aircraft Tracking System (MATS) show that this ground-based radar system can track a ScanEagle unm...
متن کاملSmall Aircraft Transportation Systems
INTRODUCTION Air transportation systems are based on a variety of vehicles including fixed wing aircraft and helicopters. The most diverse and developed category remains the fixed wing aircraft with sizes ranging from single seat to 555 seats in the case of the Airbus A380. This size characterization relates to passenger vehicles. However, cargo aircraft have similar range of sizes. The largest...
متن کاملUnmanned aircraft systems as wingmen
This paper introduces a method to integrate Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UASs) into a highly functional manned/ unmanned team through the design and implementation of 3D distributed formation/flight control algorithms with the goal to act as wingmen for a manned aircraft. The proposed algorithms are designed to increase UAS autonomy, dynamically modify formations, utilize standard operating forma...
متن کاملChoosing Replanning Strategies for Unmanned Aircraft Systems
Unmanned aircraft systems use a variety of techniques to plan collision-free flight paths given a map of obstacles and nofly zones. However, maps are not perfect and obstacles may change over time or be detected during flight, which may invalidate paths that the aircraft is already following. Thus, dynamic in-flight replanning is required. Numerous strategies can be used for replanning, where t...
