The Concept of the UAS Utilization to Identify Aerodrome Traffic Safety Hazards

Journal Title: Archives of Transport System Telematics - Year 2018, Vol 11, Issue 1

Abstract

Aircraft operations performed in aerodrome traffic are characterized by special aerodynamic, navigational and operational conditions. According to statistical analysis of aircraft accidents and incidents, take-off and departure as well as approach and landing operations are particularly dangerous. One of the serious hazards, whose scale of occurrence has recently significantly increased, are the events of dazzling pilots with the laser beam. In this article, the identification of these hazards and the analysis of the safety risk was performed. Then a study of legal regulations concerning the protection of the aerodrome surroundings area against the laser emission was carried out. Based on the obtained results, the necessity to increase the effectiveness of practical laser beam sources identification was stated. For this purpose, utilization of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), which, when properly equipped in telematic devices, will be an unmanned aerial system (UAS) for detecting laser beam sources, was proposed. In the following part, analysis and research on practical aspects of the proposed concept’s implementation were carried out, specifying potential chances and threats of their implementation.
