<p>A system on-board an unmanned aerial vehicle for controlling a lateral maneuver to avoid a loss of separation between the unmanned aerial vehicle and an intruder into its airspace. The system receives as inputs the desired miss distance, desired bank angle, state vectors for the unmanned aerial vehicle, wind, and an intruder, and a target vector; and outputs a lateral route change which will achieve the desired miss distance and return the unmanned aerial vehicle back to path. In one embodiment, the system comprises a computer programmed with software that runs automatically and guides the unmanned aerial vehicle to perform a lateral maneuver that avoids loss of separation. In another embodiment, the software runs automatically and advises a pilot on the ground (who is flying the drone by remote control) that a maneuver is about to happen, which maneuver the pilot can either accept or reject.</p> |
