The age of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) is upon us, and in ushering new
ways to connect and travel, this wave of technology has been compared to
GPS and cloud computing. However, new technologies like AAM require
tools to build, expand, and understand the capabilities. This book
describes an effective and efficient, complete solution to the
large-scale, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) traffic management problem.
The authors present a detailed perspective and solutions to some of the
major problems involved in coordinating thousands of autonomous vehicles
including: virtual highway (lane) creation, strategic deconfliction of
flights, dynamic deconfliction, UAS agent behavior learning, anomalous
trajectory detection and classification, as well as a set of simulation
results for a variety of scenarios (city package delivery, earthquake
supply delivery, coalition force coordination through the lane
reservation system, etc.).
