Abstract

This work presents a federated simulation framework for safety and reliability analysis in Aeronautical Communications Networking (ATN) considering the insertion of Unmanned Aircraft Vehicles (UAV) in the airspace control. The main objective is to quantitatively assess the impact of ATN faults on the risk collision probability between manned and unmanned aircraft. The paper first presents the framework that simulates the communication systems used in a non-controlled airspace. Then it is described the ATN fault injection module, which is then used to evaluate the impact of network-level faults on the risk of collisions probability considering a representative simulation scenario comprising 1500 aircraft in flight.
