Abstract:
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), due to their remarkable development, relatively low cost, and low risk to human are a prime candidate for the teaming with manned aircraft in performing complex missions. There are various challenges and techniques for manned-unmanned aircraft collaboration. This paper introduces the concept of manned-unmanned aircraft teaming, as well as teaming architecture. The technical requirements for a manned-aircraft-leader, unmanned-aircraft-follower teaming are discussed. In addition, the teaming formulation, teaming laws, and sense-and-avoid system are developed. A particular teaming law and a guidance algorithm for a manned-aircraft-leader, unmanned-aircraft-follower teaming architecture are developed. At the end, the success of the teaming architecture and performance of the sense-and-avoid and guidance systems are examined through various flight simulations.
