Abstract

Verbatim from NASA NTRS. Not paraphrased, not summarized.

Motivation: NextGen traffic infrastructure is in place to support manned aircraft operations. However, the UAS ground control station (GCS) adds a data interface requirement that is not yet fully accounted for in the NextGen data service architecture. Existing NextGen data service is focused on aircraft, not the GCS. Smaller UAS may not have the payload or power capacity to support the additional equipment. Innovation: Provide a mechanism for a UAS regardless of size, payload, bandwidth, and power capacity to gain access to NextGen data-sourced traffic information in real-time.
