Adacel participates in TBO-UAS project

3rd March 2016 - 10:38 GMT | by Shephard News Team

RSS

Adacel has successfully participated in a trajectory based operation (TBO) and UAS integration demonstration project that was conducted at the Florida NextGen Test Bed at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, it announced on 2 March.

The FAA sponsored the project, which seeks to further mature TBO concepts through research and development. The project aims to identify the functional capabilities for integrating four-dimensional trajectory operations in the National Airspace System (NAS) using a UAS as a platform within Class A airspace. The project’s outcome will include recommendations on updates to concepts, standards and benefits of integration of UAS into the NAS.

One of this project segment's objectives was to investigate trajectory negotiation concepts and processes for resolving conflicts focusing on the flight's en-route phase. Adacel worked on the project as part of a team of industry partners.

Adacel adapted its configurable and scalable Aurora ATM conflict probe software to work with the Flight Information Exchange Model data interchange format. According to Adacel, its Aurora ATM automation software system can manage all types of airspace and incorporate the latest in CNS/ATM technologies.
