UAV Safety Objective Specificity l SAFETY OBJECTIVES Aircraft safety objectives are mainly oriented by the onboard people safety As UAVs have no onboard people Aircraft safety objectives can no longer be directly reused Therefore the protection of on-ground people is becoming the main objective Safety Objectives to be determined providing the appropriate safety level l OPERATIONS IN "GENERAL AIR TRAFFIC" As UAV safety objectives are addressing the safety of on-ground populations UAVs whatever their status ("Civil" or "State" one) must have the same safety objectives All UAVs flying over Europe will have to be in agreement with these safety objectives An agreement between FAA & EASA on these safety objectives is key for worldwide UAV operations Later these safety objectives will have to be recognized at the ICAO level DIRECTION TECHNIQUE CERTIFICATION SL 2008 -05 UAV Specificities EASA Workshop 080201. ppt 3

UAV Collision Avoidance Specificity l SAFETY OF COLLISION AVOIDANCE Today based on the pilot capacity to avoid the collision ("see & avoid" principle) l NEW METHOD FOR SEPARATION & COLLISION AVOIDANCE It is suggested to use a "1309" approach : A method where collision risk is defined by safety objectives and validated by safety analysis With such a method, no longer any need to compare "see & avoid " to "sense and avoid" The proposed system will have to be certified in agreement with its requirements DIRECTION TECHNIQUE CERTIFICATION SL 2008 -05 UAV Specificities EASA Workshop 080201. ppt 4

UAV Communication Specificity l ATC PILOT COMMUNICATION LINK UAV will be controlled by the pilot from "ground station" "Terrestrial links" may have to be considered (a safer way compared to radio link) It's also the possibility to provide UAV pilot with the ATC tactical situation l UAV CONTROL LINK Until certification of fully autonomous UAVs, UAVs will request specific control link This requirement has to be considered by the aeronautical communities (frequency allocation, minimum bandwidth, integrity, continuity of service…) l UAV & ATC UAVs as the other airspace users might have some specific operational constraints (Speed, altitude, rate of turn, …) These constraints have to be considered UAVs as new users should benefit of a specific ATC treatment during “introduction” period This will provide other airspace users with more confidence in UAV behavior DIRECTION TECHNIQUE CERTIFICATION SL 2008 -05 UAV Specificities EASA Workshop 080201. ppt 5

Conclusions l WE ARE IN A COMPETITIVE WORLD UAV will exist if their Business Models are cost effective European Industry must have the opportunity to play an active role in UAV developments l A NEW APPROACH OF AIRCRAFT COLLISION RISK HAS TO BE CONSIDERED l BLINDLY APPLYING MANNED CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS WOULD LEAD INDUSTRY TO UNNECESSARY ECONOMIC ISSUES Safety objectives as weight limits quantitative values contained into the manned CS cannot be blindly reused for UAV certification l FURTHER ANALYSES ARE NEEDED BEFORE EASA FINAL POSITION ON UAV DIRECTION TECHNIQUE CERTIFICATION SL 2008 -05 UAV Specificities EASA Workshop 080201. ppt 7
