Description
Summary:Integrating Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) into airspace requires a reliable framework which is robust and scalable. CORRIDRONE is one such architecture that generates corridors for point-to-point traversal of drones. This work presents details about its central features like adaptive geo-fencing, drone compliance levels, and corridor geometry. Adaptive geo-fencing guarantees vehicle safety when multiple vehicles of different hardware and software capabilities are sharing the same airspace. Compliance levels, defined based on these capabilities of the UAVs, are an essential measure for determining geo-fence bounds. The lane geometry of CORRIDRONE is designed considering the aerodynamic aspects like downwash, which ensures in-flight stability of the UAVs. These features confirm safe transit of the vehicles and also ensures efficient operation of the system. The flexibility to accommodate multiple UAVs of varying compliance levels highlight the robustness of the proposed framework.
