SAFETY CONCERNS ON OPERATING UAV USING COOPERATIVE MULTIAGENT NEGOTIATION

Developed countries have made significant efforts to integrate UAV operations in controlled aerial space due to a rising interest of using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) for civilian purposes. This study focuses the use of multi-agent architecture to distribute the workload of detecting and solving conflicts between the aircraft and the UAV with no intervention from ground-based facilities. Midair collision risk was the main unsafe situation evaluated using an aircraft collision model based on air traffic density data.
