Iris Programme Overview
Iris, element 10 of the ESA's ARTES (Advanced Research in Telecommunications Systems) programme, aims to develop a new Air-Ground Communication system for Air Traffic Management (ATM). It is the satellite-based solution for the Single European Sky Air Traffic Management (ATM) Research (SESAR) programme. It supports the implementation of the Single European Sky by looking at all aspects of Air Traffic Management. It also intends to modernize communication infrastructure and increase safety for air traffic participants. By 2020 it will contribute to the modernization of air traffic management by providing digital data-links to cockpit crews in continental and oceanic airspace replacing a voice communication channel between the pilot and a controller.

SCANNER UAV
Scanner
a.s

The Scanner is a medium endurance unmanned aircraft system. The Scanner's primary mission is reconnaissance and surveillance in support of the operational commander. Surveillance imagery from video cameras and forward looking cameras are distributed in real-time. Features The Scanner is a system, not just an aircraft. A fully operational system consists of one aircraft (with sensors), a Ground Data Terminal, an Image Receiving System, a Scanner Satellite Link, along with operations and maintenance crews for deployed 24-hour operations. The basic crew for the Scanner is a pilot and a payload operator. Scanner follows a conventional launch sequence from a semi-prepared surface under direct line-of-sight control. The take-off distance is typically 50 m (165 ft) and landing 100 m (330 ft). The mission is controlled through real-time video signals received in the Ground Data Terminal. Command users are able to task the payload operator in real-time for images or video on demand. The surveillance and reconnaissance payload capacity is 10 kg (22 lb), and the vehicle carries electro optical and infrared cameras. The aircraft can be equipped with sensors as the mission requires. The cameras produce full-motion video. The system is composed of three major components, which can be deployed for operations in the field. The Scanner aircraft can be disassembled and packed into a container for travel.
Background
The Scanner system was designed in response to the needs of police and military to provide medium-duration intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance information. It has many other uses: promotion, real estate sales, technical documentation of historic buildings, digs registration, comparison of geological changes, agriculture, detection of illegal buildings and junkyards, searching for missing persons or fugitives, measurement of concentrations of noxious gases, traffic monitoring, residential area monitoring, and security patrol.

UAV PAYLOADS
UAV sense and avoid systems and communication payloads ARCA (Adaptive Routing and Conflict mAnagement) control system
The goal of the project is to develop an autonomous on-board flight system able to guide a UAV towards a specific destination modifying its own flight trajectory in reaction to a variety of external situations, maintaining the separation with other aircrafts. In restricted airspaces this system will allow a UAV to separate from other UAV by coordinating with them and autonomously solving possible trajectory conflicts. The system will also offer the same capabilities for the non restricted airspace, including separation from commercial aircraft. This capability will only be exploitable if particular operational conditions are met (e.g. all commercial traffic is equipped with devices for providing navigation information such as the ADS-B; adequate ATM procedures are defined to deal with equipment failures). Path Planning and Conflict Detection & Resolution functionalities with an innovative approach based on the emerging frameworks of Multi-agents Systems and Game Theory.

UAV AUTOPILOT
Autopilot Overview
The autopilot is designed as a modular system consisting of a UAV Control Unit and various sensors (GPS, gyroscope, accelerometers, altimeter, ...) communicating through two independent CAN buses for high reliability. The data collected by various sensors is combined by a unique algorithm statistically evaluating validity of the data. Data from one particular sensor are merged with data obtained by another sensor based on sensor noise probability guess, which leads to more precise calculation of the UAV's state. This topology benefits from using of UAV Control Unit redundant sensors that are working simultaneously without switching. When sensor malfunction occurs, only noise probability increases. Classical switching to backup device does not use all available sensors during normal operation. Features The key feature of the autopilot is to stabilize the aircraft. The considered variables are: direction (heading)
Operator's Input Actuators Route Planner Position Regulators Air Frame

horizontal speed altitude The controlled variables are: control of the engine thrust aerodynamic control surfaces (roll, pitch and yaw)

The heading is controlled by a combinaAVCS tion of deflection of the rudder (or elevatCollision Diagnosis Detection UCS ors in case of the rudder-free airframes) and ailerons. The horizontal speed is Autopilot Architecture Design controlled by adjustment to the engine thrust. The rate of climb to a given altitude is achieved by the application of a combination of elevator deflection and engine thrust.

Automatic Flight Control System The Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS) higher level intelligence of the autopilot which accepts the commands from the operator (respectively UCS), compares the state (orientation, position, ) of the UAV with what is commanded and instructs the other layer of the system to make appropriate corrections.

GROUND CONTROL SYSTEM


UAV Control System
The UAV Control System (UCS) is a NATO STANAG 4586 compatible system designed to control 400 aerial targets and other STANAG 4586 compatible UAV or UGV and UUV. The system is not limited to one vehicle at a time but can receive telemetry data and sensor imagery from multiple vehicles in parallel thereby enabling it to combine data from several sources and control several vehicles and their payloads. According to STANAG 4586 multiple levels of interoperability are feasible between different UAVs and their UAV Ground Stations (UGSs). To achieve maximum operational flexibility the UCS supports Level 4: Control and monitoring of the UAV, less launch and recovery. UCS Architecture All UAVs controlled by the system communicate with Core UCS (CUCS) through STANAG 4586 defined Data Link Interface (DLI). The CUCS unit processes the telemetry and other data collected from the UAVs. The data is provided further to compatible C4I Systems and through Human Computer Interaction (HCI) module to the vehicle and payload operators. UCS Configurations There are several configurations of the UCS available to meet specific requirements of various missions. Mobile configuration is designed to provide basic functionality focusing on maximum mobility and easiness of use in complicated situations. Room and Car configurations offer a reasonable trade-off between full featured functionality, lower mobility and more complex humancomputer interaction requiring more qualified operators. Payload Control The payload carried by the vehicle can be sensor systems and associated recording devices that are installed on the air vehicle, or they can consist of stores, e.g. weapon systems, and associated control/feedback mechanisms, or both. The data link element consists of the Air Data Terminal (ADT) in the air vehicle and the Ground Data Terminal (GDT), which may be located on surface, sub-surface or air platforms. The control of the UAV System and communication with its payloads is achieved through the UCS and data link elements. The UCS element incorporates the functionality to generate, load and execute the UAV mission and to disseminate usable information data products to various C4I systems or a custom external system.
