DARVIS - Data Fusion of K/X Band Radar with Visual Sensors for Airborne Platforms

Various sensor technologies in aviation have so far insufficiently combined the respective complementary properties. The optimal fusion as well as the respective characteristics of the sensors are to be optimally used in the future. The different methods for calibration and synchronization will be investigated and optimized. The results will then be incorporated into a sensor technology model for collision avoidance in aviation.

DEMONA - Demonstration of UAS Integration for VLL Airspace Operations

Within the DEMONA framework, the integration of an unmanned aerial vehicle into civil airspace and therein used flight guidance, which is based on the Galileo satellite navigation system, will be carried out for the first time in Austria. For this purpose, subsystems for navigation receiver, navigation data fusion, airspace demarcation, data link and collision prevention are to be integrated into a small UAS, and flight testing based on instrument procedures is to be carried out.

OMOSA - Open Modular/Open Source Avionics Architecture for Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems

OMOSA is researching the system architectures of avionics for small unmanned aerial vehicles, following the Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA) approach. By using commercial, modular hardware and open source software, aircraft electronics are to be developed. These can be used for flight control, as a navigation system, and as a C2 link. For this purpose, aircraft antennas integrated into the fuselage will also be included. The project results will be validated via a measurement campaign using a rotorcraft.

ROPA - Radar Optical Piloted Aircraft

In order to ensure increased safety in flight, ROPA's research work is dedicated to the investigation and data fusion of various optical, infrared and radar sensor methods and procedures. The focus is on the identification of potential conflicts and strategies for collision avoidance as well as the integration and evaluation of the technology in an aircraft according to the EASA CS23 category.

eSAFE - Emergency Safe Return for CS23 Aircraft

The aim of the project is the development of an automatic emergency flight guidance, including emergency landing for the EASA CS23 category aircraft. In case of sudden in-flight pilot incapacitation or technical problems, after activating the emergency button on board, an airfield with an approach route taking into account dynamic air traffic and weather data should be determined.
