Abstract
The increasing number of unmanned aerial vehicle poses new challenges in the aviation industry especially the air traffic control, which is responsible for the safe flight operations in the controlled airspaces. In order to protect the conventional aircraft a new operation environment has to be created, which guarantee the safe flying and the possibility of the fulfilment of the flight. In the article drone related safety and operational problems are highlighted. All issue connected to the coexistence of manned and unmanned aircrafts are critical, thus their management have significant importance.Spread and wide use of unmanned aerial vehicle traffic management systems (UTM) can manage the critical operational issues, but is has to be defined that what is the problem, what is the scope, what is the operational environment. Services and functions related to the operation of the UTM system are defined, which are necessary for the safe flying fulfilled by the unmanned vehicles.
Highlights
The spread of small, commercially available remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS) are increasing in the last few years
While previously the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) were primarily used by the military, till the commercial usage of UAVs is becoming a priority in the service, agriculture and light industry segments
At the current level of development, UAVs with different instrumentation may not able to detect all other vehicles and they are not equipped with anti-collision systems, which can provide against the conflicts by modifying the flight path based on the predefined resolution rules
Summary
The spread of small, commercially available remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS) are increasing in the last few years. User side is attenuating due to the cheap, widespread, and accessible devices, almost anyone can enter into the aviation, which poses a serious security risk: the growing spread of RPASs could endanger the security of civil aviation and artificially built infrastructure, not to mention the human life. For these reasons, it is vital to find solutions, which can manage the emerging aviation safety and security related issues comprehensively.
