Improving the planning and management of flight contingencies in the scalable deployment of drone operations We are entering a new era of aviation that will transform how people and goods move through our cities. A new generation of airspace users—drones and urban air mobility vehicles—is rapidly emerging, with forecasts predicting very high traffic densities over major […]
AirST-Frame: Operational Enhancement of Airspace Capacity The rapid growth of air traffic is putting increasing pressure on airspace capacity and on air traffic controllers. While existing measures help manage demand peaks, current mechanisms lack flexibility and often lead to workload imbalances between neighbouring sectors, with some overloaded and others underused. AirST‑Frame introduces a more dynamic, capacity‑on‑demand approach to […]
A Multi-Agent negotiation framework for planning conflict-free U-space scenarios The expected growth of drone traffic in both urban and rural areas calls for highly automated and scalable air traffic management solutions. U‑PLAN addresses this challenge by developing smart U‑space services that help balance airspace demand and capacity while maintaining safety and efficiency. The project introduces automated, negotiation‑based mechanisms that detect […]
