摘要：	Phase 1 of the UAS-NAS (Unmanned Aircraft Systems-National Airspace System) project focused on MOPS (Minimum Operational Performance Standards) development for large UAS transitioning through Class D, E, and G airspace. Phase 2 activities are currently focused on extended UAS operations in Class D, E, and G airspace, as well as sensors and architectures that will enable DAA (Detect and Avoid) equipment to be installed on a wider range of UAS. Encounters with non-cooperative intruders in low altitude airspace under 10,000 feet will be explored for UAS with a low Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) radar. New sensors for detecting non-cooperative intruder aircraft will have a more limited detection range and field of regard; therefore, the analysis of non-cooperative encounter geometries may help in developing the requirements for an onboard low SWaP radar (and electro-optical sensor). The current simulation, led by HSI (Human Systems Integration Division at NASA Ames Research Center) as part of the DAA subproject, will support efforts toward developing a modified DAA Well Clear (DWC) definition that would be more appropriate for UAS equipped with limited surveillance and aircraft performance capabilities compared to the Phase 1 DAA system. The findings will inform Phase 2 display requirements for alternative surveillance use cases.
