    摘要: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for radar-based object discovery and airspace data collection and management. In some examples, a data service system deploys radars across geographic areas based on a respective radar detection range of the radars and a coverage parameter for the geographic areas, wherein each of the radars is configured to detect object parameters within the respective radar detection range. The data service system collects the object parameters from the radars, determines weather conditions and/or airspace regulations associated with the geographic areas, and models airspace conditions for the geographic areas based on the object parameters and the weather conditions and/or airspace regulations.

    摘要: Systems, methods, and devices for automatic signal detection in an RF environment are disclosed. A sensor device in a nodal network comprises at least one RF receiver, a generator engine, and an analyzer engine. The at least one RF receiver measures power levels in the RF environment and generates FFT data based on power level data. The generator engine calculates a power distribution by frequency of the RF environment in real time or near real time, including a first derivative and a second derivative of the FFT data. The analyzer engine creates a baseline based on statistical calculations of the power levels measured in the RF environment for a predetermined period of time, and identifies at least one signal based on the first derivative and the second derivative of the FFT data in at least one conflict situation from comparing live power distribution to the baseline of the RF environment.

    摘要: Systems and methods for detecting, monitoring, and mitigating the presence of a drone are provided herein. In one aspect, a system for detecting presence of a drone includes a radio-frequency (RF) receiver. The system can further include a processor and a computer-readable memory in communication with the processor and having stored thereon computer-executable instructions to cause the at least one processor to receive a set of samples from the RF receiver for a time interval, obtain predetermined data of expected communication protocols used between the drone and a controller, and determine whether the RF signal corresponds to one of the expected communication protocols by comparing the samples of the RF signal to the predetermined data and decoding the RF signal. In further aspects the system extracts a unique identifier of the drone based at least partially on the decoded RF signal.

    摘要: A device for avoiding a potential conflict detected in a predetermined trajectory prediction horizon between a first trajectory of a first ship or aircraft and a second trajectory of a second ship or aircraft is disclosed. Each trajectory includes a plurality of segments formed between multiple navigation points. The device includes a determination unit for determining at least one lateral peripheral envelope of the first trajectory, a division unit for dividing the lateral peripheral envelope into a plurality of juxtaposed sections arranged longitudinally the ones after the others and delimited by transition lines marking the change between sections, each transition line cutting, at a first point of intersection, a segment of the first trajectory and, at a second point of intersection, and an edge of the lateral peripheral envelope, a discretisation unit, and a computing unit.

    摘要: Systems, apparatus, and methods for providing data in a pre-determined format with minimal impact from an aircraft to an interested entity are disclosed. One system includes a data processing system configured to store executable code to receive data, wherein the data is otherwise unavailable to the interested entity via pre-existing technology, determine, in real-time, one or more first devices on the aircraft where the data is stored in a format that is non-compliant with the pre-determined format and/or one or more second devices on the aircraft where the data can be generated in the format that is non-compliant with the pre-determined format, and retrieve the data in the format that is non-compliant with the pre-determined format from the at least one of the one or more first devices and the one or more second devices. Apparatus and methods that include and/or perform the operations of the system are also disclosed.
