no “one size fits all” requirement for equipment on unmanned aircraft. Instead, manufacturers and operators should choose equipment based on their concept of operations (CONOPS) and the operating rules under which they will fly.  This can be approximately aligned with the airspace management scheme:</p><ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Under 400 ft AGL will be managed under the <a href="https://www.faa.gov/uas/research_development/traffic_management/">Unmanned Traffic Management (UTM) system</a> and generally operate under the new remote ID rules of 14 CFR Part 89</li><li>Between 400 ft AGL and 60,000 ft MSL will be coordinated through Air Traffic Control (ATC) in the Air Traffic Management (ATM) system and will usually operate under Part 91 or Part 135.</li><li>High altitude operations above 60,000 feet MSL are managed per the ATM, although work is being done to more clearly define airspace management processes for the <a href="https://www.faa.gov/uas/advanced_operations/upper_class_etm/">Upper Class E Traffic Management (ETM) system</a> as technology evolves to create more traffic in this area.</li></ul><p><strong>Detect and Avoid (DAA) and Airborne Collision Avoidance Systems (ACAS)</strong></p><p>With the lack of a pilot onboard to “see and avoid” other aircraft, UAS will depend on <a href="https://sagetech.com/detect-and-avoid-systems-unmanned-aircraft-uav-uas-daa/">certifiable DAA solutions</a> to ensure airspace safety.  RTCA is currently generating standards for the FAA which define the Detect and Avoid requirements based on the Airborne Collision Avoidance Systems (ACAS).  For UAS, three version of ACAS are defined or in development:</p><ul class="wp-block-list"><li>ACAS-Xu – <a href="https://my.rtca.org/NC__Product?id=a1B1R00000LoYKtUAN">Minimum Operational Performance Standards (MOPS) DO-386</a> were released in December, specifying logic-based hardware requirements and algorithms for recognizing and avoiding potential collisions for fixed wing UAS operating under Part 91 or Part 135 rules. Certifiable systems will need to adhere to DO-386.</li><li>ACAS-Xr – ACAS Xu will be adapted for rotorcraft.</li><li>ACAS-sXu – will define requirements used in DAA systems of small UAS getting type certifications flying under Part 89.</li></ul><div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img decoding="async" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" data-src="https://sagetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/ACAS-graphic-for-blog.png" alt="" class="wp-image-5614 lazyload"/><noscript><img data-recalc-dims="1" decoding="async" width="1271" height="708" src="https://i0.wp.com/sagetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/ACAS-graphic-for-blog.png?resize=1271%2C708&ssl=1" alt="" class="wp-image-5614 lazyload" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/sagetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/ACAS-graphic-for-blog.png?w=1271&ssl=1 1271w, https://i0.wp.com/sagetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/ACAS-graphic-for-blog.png?resize=300%2C167&ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/sagetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/ACAS-graphic-for-blog.png?resize=1024%2C570&ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/sagetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/ACAS-graphic-for-blog.png?resize=768%2C428&ssl=1 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></noscript></figure></div><p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Figure 2: ACAS Xu (red), sXu (blue) and Xr (green) (Source: FAA CONOPS for ACAS-sXu, 2020)</em></p><p><strong>DAA Systems Maximize Airspace Safety</strong></p><p>In the language of Detect and Avoid there are two types of traffic: cooperative and non-cooperative.  Cooperative traffic is similarly equipped, and ACAS-based DAA systems minimize the risk of collision by providing for two-way avoidance coordination between cooperative aircraft.  As traffic approaches a situation where “well clear” may be violated, evasive action is coordinated, i.e. one aircraft climbs and one descends.  With non-cooperative traffic, there is a higher risk of conflicting avoidance maneuvers, so a larger well-clear buffer must be maintained.  By recognizing and coordinating with cooperative traffic, DAA systems greatly reduce the risk of collision.</p><div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img decoding="async" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" data-src="https://sagetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/DAA-diagram-Sagetech-Avionics.png" alt="" class="wp-image-5615 lazyload"/><noscript><img data-recalc-dims="1" decoding="async" width="847" height="534" src="https://i0.wp.com/sagetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/DAA-diagram-Sagetech-Avionics.png?resize=847%2C534&ssl=1" alt="" class="wp-image-5615 lazyload" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/sagetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/DAA-diagram-Sagetech-Avionics.png?w=847&ssl=1 847w, https://i0.wp.com/sagetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/DAA-diagram-Sagetech-Avionics.png?resize=300%2C189&ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/sagetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/DAA-diagram-Sagetech-Avionics.png?resize=768%2C484&ssl=1 768w" sizes="(max-width: 847px) 100vw, 847px" /></noscript></figure></div><p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Figure 3: ACAS-Xu and ACAS-Xr based DAA systems</em></p><p><strong>DAA Equipment – What’s Needed and What’s Certifiable</strong></p><p>For UAS operating under Part 91 or Part 135, which will generally be 55 pounds or greater, flying beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) in the National Airspace System greater than 400 ft AGL, visual or simple sensor-based systems will not be enough.
