P00003 THE OVERALL OBJECTIVES OF THIS RESEARCH EFFORT ARE TO IDENTIFY SAFETY CONCERNS FOR UAV OPERATION IN THE NAS (INCLUDING LOC), INVESTIGATE THE APPLICABILITY OF LOC PREVENTION AND RECOVERY TECHNOLOGIES FOR UAV OPERATIONS, AND TO ESTABLISH A METHODOLOGY FOR EVALUATING THEIR RESILIENCE UNDER UNCERTAIN, UNEXPECTED, AND HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS. AS PART OF THIS EFFORT, SAFE-CUE WILL BE INVESTIGATED FOR LOC PREVENTION IN REMOTELY PILOTED UAS AIRCRAFT, WHERE PIO SUSCEPTIBILITY MAY BE HEIGHTENED BY TRANSPORT DELAYS AND THE LACK OF SENSORY INFORMATION AVAILABLE TO ONBOARD PILOTS. IN ORDER TO ACCOMPLISH THIS RESEARCH, AND DUE TO THE LACK OF ANALYSIS RELATED TO UAS SAFETY, THE FOLLOWING SPECIFIC TASKS ARE IDENTIFIED: 1.) PERFORM AN ANALYSIS OF UAV ACCIDENTS AND INCIDENTS (I.E., MISHAPS) THAT HAVE OCCURRED TO DATE (CIVIL AND MILITARY); 2.) IDENTIFY FUTURE SAFETY HAZARDS RELATED TO UAS OPERATION IN THE NATIONAL AIRSPACE SYSTEM (NAS); 3.) DEVELOP A SET OF HAZARDSBASED TEST SCENARIOS THAT CAN BE USED IN THE DEVELOPMENT AND EVALUATION OF UAS TECHNOLOGIES FOR RESILIENCE UNDER UNCERTAIN, UNEXPECTED, AND HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS; 4.) DETERMINE THE APPLICABILITY OF SAFE-CUE TO THE MITIGATION OF KEY UAS HAZARDS (AS IDENTIFIED IN TASKS 1 - 2); AND 5.) EXTEND (AS NECESSARY), IMPLEMENT, AND EVALUATE SAFE-CUE FOR LOC PREVENTION AND/OR RECOVERY IN UAS UTILIZING THE HAZARDS-BASED TEST SCENARIOS DEVELOPED IN TASK 3 (OR AN APPROPRIATE SUBSET THEREIN). THE RESULTS OF THIS STUDY WILL DEMONSTRATE THE USE OF HAZARDS-BASED TEST SCENARIOS TO ENSURE UAS SAFETY AND RESILIENCE UNDER UNCERTAIN, UNEXPECTED, AND HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS.
