1. Symbiotic Simulation of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS)

2. Auburn Objective “fly safely and efficiently, in a limited space, a fleet of autonomous UAS on a cooperative mission with terrestrial vehicles. ” Challenging Constraints –UAS must fly at constant speed –UAS must fly at the same altitude

3. Requirements 1.Control multiple UAS in a limited space 2.Standardized evaluation of collision avoidance algorithms designed/implemented by different teams 3.Control a mix of real and simulated UAS 4.Dynamic simulation model (Learn from real UAS) (in progress) 5.STANAG 4586 compliant (in progress)

4. Constraints on UAS Independent missions Upper limit on the altitude Lower limit on the altitude (stealth or regulations) Speed within a limited range Limited communications range for low end UAS

5. Software Architecture

6. Achievements Ground station Fly up to 16 UAVs in 1 km x 1km with no near miss Fly up to 8 UAVs in a 500 m x 500 m with no near miss

7. Ground Station (Screen)

9. In Progress STANAG 4596 compliance Symbiotic simulation End to end security Make UAS fault tolerant to GPS failures/jamming
