Maurizio Mancini - the ansp perspectiveALIAS Network
ANSPs are concerned about the increasing integration of drones into airspace as it poses safety and regulatory challenges. Currently, ANSPs do not provide air traffic services for or have visibility into civil drone operations below 500 feet in uncontrolled airspace. However, ANSPs see a need to develop innovative infrastructure and services to safely manage the exponential growth of small drone operations in class F and G airspace through approaches like smart use of technologies like ADS-B and geo-fencing to segregate drone traffic from other aircraft. Ultimately, achieving an acceptable level of safety for all airspace users will require new procedures, rules, training and mitigations as drone operations become more prevalent.

3) Recommendations to improve specific human factors, such as introducing 3D cameras and voice commands to enhance situation awareness, and redesigning the control layout to reduce errors.
The document evaluates human factors challenges for ROV pilots and provides suggestions to enhance the pilot experience and performance through improved system
This document provides an overview of small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) and the state of their integration into national airspace systems globally. It discusses various regulatory definitions of sUAS and operational limitations like altitude and visual line of sight restrictions. The top challenges to integration are identified as lack of investment, disunity within the industry, perceptions by manned aviation stakeholders, regulators' understanding of the technology, and trying to apply manned aviation standards. While 2013 was proposed as a deadline for full commercial access in the US, full integration remains an ongoing process with many stakeholders and open questions remaining. The document outlines current and potential markets as well as competitive landscapes and pitfalls to consider.
The document discusses soldier modernization efforts, including enhancing capabilities for future soldiers to accomplish missions. It outlines five key soldier system capability areas and various projects to modernize equipment like clothing, weapons, sensors and protection. Global development of integrated soldier systems is mentioned, along with challenges of balancing capabilities, technology insertion and performance parameters.
But what exactly is multilateration? How does it work?
Why are ANSPs and airports increasingly adopting it?
What are its benefits? What about certification?
How will it aid in the transition to ADS-B?
Most importantly, how can it benefit your organization?

The document discusses the integration of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) into the national airspace system (NAS) in the United States. It notes that significant increases in UAS operations are inevitable and that routine access to civil airspace is necessary to fulfill their operational and economic potential. It outlines the establishment of RTCA Special Committee 203 to develop standards to ensure the safe operation of UAS in the NAS, including standards for command and control systems and sense and avoid systems. The committee aims to support the industry's and government's goal of operating UAS safely in the NAS while maintaining safety and efficiency.
The document discusses ADS-B technology and how it can improve air traffic surveillance when combined with GAGAN, India's satellite-based augmentation system. ADS-B uses GPS to broadcast flight information like location and speed to nearby aircraft and ground stations every second, providing more real-time awareness than radar which has a 12 second delay. When paired with GAGAN, ADS-B with GAGAN will give pilots and air traffic controllers more accurate location data to safely manage airspace. This could have prevented past mid-air collisions in India, like the 1966 crash that killed 349 people due to lack of information in dense traffic. The document argues for implementing ADS-B with GAGAN to improve aviation safety as air travel

ADS-B Update: equipping for 2020 (August 2015 edition)sportyspilotshop
This document discusses ADS-B equipage options for pilots, including both panel-mount and portable solutions. It provides an overview of key ADS-B concepts and terminology. For panel-mount options, it reviews several avionics solutions from manufacturers like Garmin, FreeFlight, and L-3 Communications that can be installed in aircraft. It also discusses factors for pilots to consider when deciding between 978 MHz UAT or 1090 MHz ES solutions. The document then covers several portable ADS-B receiver options that can be used with iPad apps like ForeFlight, Garmin Pilot, and WingX to provide ADS-B functionality without a permanent install.
This document discusses ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast), a technology that will replace radar as the primary means for air traffic controllers to track aircraft. It operates using two modes: ADS-B Out broadcasts data from aircraft, while ADS-B In receives data in the aircraft. By 2020, all aircraft will be required to have ADS-B Out equipment installed. ADS-B uses GPS and broadcasts aircraft's location, speed, and other data to any aircraft or ground station equipped to receive it. This allows pilots and controllers to see the same information simultaneously.
