3 PROJECT SCOPE Satellite-UAS collaborative mission can be defined as any mission where the satellite and the UAS extend the capabilities of each other: Missions where the space segment provides assistance for the UAS navigation and surveillance Missions where the space segment acts as a relay for routine operation communications (BLOS), e.g. relay command and control, ATC, Missions where the space segment serves as a relay for data collected by UAV payload (BLOS). Missions where the UAV serves as a communication relay for the satellite data in areas with difficult access such as urban areas. Missions where the satellite-uav collaboration is implemented on the ground by the fusion of the information produced separately by the satellite and the UAV, e.g. the exploitation of images with different resolution from space and air 3
4 OBJECTIVES To provide a survey of ongoing and planned civil and security European and Canadian UAS programmes requiring cooperative missions between satellites and UAS To investigate the feasibility and benefit of a dedicated European satellite capability to support UAS missions while meeting their requirements To provide feasible system architectures supporting the synergy of UAS and satellites technologies in the domains of: BLOS communications Precision satellite-based global positioning Integration of UAS in ATM airspace Service specific missions requiring concurrent use of satellites and UAS 4
5 SATELLITE BENEFITS TO UAS MISSIONS (I) Satellites benefit UAS in two ways: Providing CNS (Communications, Navigation, Surveillance) services Complementing/enhancing UAS capabilities by performing joint missions. CNS services to UAS: In general, services are mature for all UAS Navigation/Positioning, as well as for Communications and Cooperative Surveillance for MALE/HALE/HAP UAS. UAS Category Micro Mini Tactical MALE HALE / HAP Navigation/ Positioning High High High High High Satellite Services for UAS Safety Comms. Low Medium Medium High High Payload Comms. Low Low Medium High High Cooperative Surveillance Low Medium Medium High High 5
6 SATELLITE BENEFITS TO UAS MISSIONS (II) Joint Satellite-UAS missions: The integration of satellites and UAS has the potential of unique civil and security global missions, including time-critical and lifecritical operations The synergy UAS-Satellite stem from their complementary characteristics with regards to the capability to provide data to the operators or users Strengths of one system can balance weaknesses of the other system Area Coverage Pre-conflict data availability Data/Service Cost to Users Characteristic Resolution (e.g. atmospheric effects on resolution) Availability (when and where required) Flexibility (to change mission parameters, type of payload, ) Real Time (direct use of data and response time of the system) Maintainability and upgrade of the system and payload Heterogeneity of quality for the same service Satellite Better Worse Worse Worse Worse Better Worse Better Better UAS Worse Better Better Better Better Worse Better Worse Worse 6

9 SURVEY OF CURRENT AND PLANNED UAS PROGRAMMES Typical missions for Satellite-UAS cooperation: Mission Border Surveillance / Coastguard Emergency / Disaster Monitoring Forestry Monitoring / Fire Spotting Earth Observation / Scientific missions Communications & Broadcasting Most suitable UAS for Coop. Mission MALE/HALE MALE/HALE/HAP MALE/HALE/HAP HALE/HAP HALE/HAP More than 20 types of planned/envisioned UAS-satellite cooperative missions, and at least 10 types already conducted or being conducted as pilot experiences. Due to the challenges of UAS integration into non-segregated airspace, first established missions will be (and already are) governmental (e.g. security/surveillance, emergencies, fire-fighting ) and scientific/eo as they can be conducted in segregated/restricted airspace, above mean traffic or remote/sparsely populated areas. Most UAS (MALE/HALE) from the Defence world but they can be dual purpose (Military/Civil) 9

12 QUESTIONNAIRE RESULTS OVERVIEW Survey conducted among Stakeholders: UAS and payload manufacturers Satellite services providers NOTE: Still receiving answers. Regulatory and Standardisation bodies So far 25% but most stakeholders represented UAS-related working groups and associations Provisional results confirm: UAS missions requiring Satellite services for BLOS operations are of high interest Satellite services required for Navigation and Communications (safety, payload) Requirements depend on mission. E.g. 2-5 Mbps downlink, kbps C2, < 0.5s latency, Sense & Avoid is the most mentioned challenge for integration into non-segregated airspace. Other challenges: Regulations, Frequency spectrum, Reliability of subsystems, Comms latency, Adaptation to ATM, 12

16 DRIVEN REQUIREMENTS FOR INTEGRATION OF SATELLITE SERVICES AND UAS (IV) Integration of UAS into the future European ATM system requirements: Integration of UAS into non-segregated airspace is a key driver for future civil and security UAS development and growth. Two key issues are required to achieve the required level operability in non-segregated airspace: To achieve a seamless integration into current and future ATC procedures To maintain equivalent levels of safety as in manned aviation (Collision avoidance systems Sense and Avoid) Satellite telecommunication services contribute to the UAV airspace integration assuring compliance with ATM stringent service requirements (Communications Operating Concept and Requirements for the Future Radio System ) by relying the ATC communications to the UAV remote pilot 16

26 CONCLUSIONS The synergy between satellite technologies and UAV technologies can substantially improve the UAS performances Reliable satellite data links can become a primary means of communications for UAS operations and cooperative missions, but also provide a back-up links for safety-of-flight communications Current available European and Canadian space segment assets have certain gaps to meet the future Long Endurance UAV requirements Development of future satellites with specific payloads devoted to support UAS communications are required to meet their requirements To meet UAS-satellite cooperative mission requirements identified as output of this project, safety requirements must be early demonstrated and validated for standardization purposes. UAS safe communication functions and operations based on satellite technologies, such as S&A, ATC communications, and UAS specific safe operations (take-off, landing, health monitoring,..) should be early simulated and demonstrated by developing emulators, first, and fly trial later. 26
