UAS Automation Capability Decomposition for Distributed Operation
At present,China has released the 6-automation level(AL)grading plan of the unmanned aircraft system(UAS),but it has not yet made clear the scope of automation capability of different levels.It is difficult for UAS operators to conduct AL evaluation and grading for UAS.This article explores the UAS distributed operation characteristics and automation capability,analyzes the automation grading method of JARUS,uses causal analysis method to identify the operating risks of the UAS distributed operation,and proposes a method of UAS automation capability decomposition.This method follows operation scenario-oriented and operation risk-based principles,provides useful reference for the AL evaluation and grading of UAS,and can effectively promote healthy and orderly development of UAS distributed operation.
