P. Le Blaye¹, C. Le Tallec¹; ¹ONERA - The French aerospace lab, France
Large benefits are expected from operations of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems in the lowest layer of the airspace. A concept for RPAS traffic identification and management is presented, addressing associated safety and security issues. A technological development including onboard identification and tracking devices and on ground receivers and displays is described. Finally, set up and the results of simulation trials and in flight experiments are reported.
