Description of the project
The main objective of this project is the development of an enhanced separation management system to provide and maintain the separation minima in U-space environments between drones and drones and manned aviation. In addition, a performance communication, navigation and surveillance tool will be developed providing information necessary to define the minimum separation distance to ensure the safety operations in U-space.
