Save Aviation Tyrol – solutions for drone-related safety issues<\/h2>\n\n\n\nProject description\/methods:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n The project “SafeAviationTyrol” focuses on practical and rapidly deployable solutions for drone-related safety issues. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nthe detection of low altitude drones and aircraft,<\/li>\n\n\n\n the prevention of conflicts with civil aviation, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n secure and low latency data communication links.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Project goal: a contribution to airspace security<\/h4>\n\n\n\n The aim of the research project is to contribute to the safety of airspace, particularly concerning cooperative and uncooperative UAVs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the course of this research project, several flight operations will be conducted at different airfields. During these operations, various Detect & Avoid mechanisms will be tested (e.g., detection of ADS-B\/FLARM signals as well as uncooperative drones using ground antennas). Additionally, the performance limits of individual components will be tested in different terrains and topographical variations. Lessons learned, such as antenna placement, being gathered in the course of the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The flight operations will proceed in three stages of complexity, each taking up two flight days. The airfields are provided by the company twins GmbH via AIRlabs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Results\/Dissemination:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nIt has been proven that the selected UAV architecture can be used to detect cooperative drones emitting the FLARM or ADS-B communication protocols in low-altitude aerial environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was shown that with the open and modular architecture, detection of cooperative UAVs is possible, and that other protocols (e.g., OpengliderNetwork, LORA) can also be integrated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Radio range measurements were carried out under various environmental conditions and theoretical deployment models for area monitoring were developed in combination with coverage and shielding calculations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Discussions with potential stakeholders identified application scenarios, thus defining the direction for further development\/research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nAbbildung 2: Abschirmungsberechnungen Inntal<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nAbbildung 1: Messung FLARM-Helikopter Inntal<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nAbbildung 3: Visualisierung kooperativer Objekte (Flarm, ADS-B) in Live Map<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Technical project report: Recording of cooperative drones as part of “Save Aviation Tyrol” – The project “SafeAviationTyrol” focuses on practical and rapidly deployable solutions for drone-related safety issues.
