Title: Method and system for the prodiction of risk maps of airspace, and land areas based on the fusion of data from multiple sources
Inventor: PETER GREGORY LLOYD
IPC: G08G5/00
Filed: 2020-09-20
Abstract: A system for creating a risk map for air vehicles, such as drones or UAVs, in an airspace at a given time. The risk map considers the loss of radio data links or similar wireless signals that provide information and commands to the air vehicle, and the risk of losing control due to weather or collision with buildings. The system can use a series of sensors to monitor radio channels to assess signal strength, signal interference or noise levels. Computational models of the ground may be used to determine signal conditions due to interference from reflection or scattering caused by the environment in and around the airspace as well as turbulence conditions. The system may use the data to create a three-dimensional map of risk levels for the airspace.
