Cover Story: The future European airspace for unmanned aircraft (U-Space) lays the foundation for these aircraft to be integrated with conventionally manned traffic in urban air mobility (UAM) scenarios. In this context, conflict management services need to be deployed to prevent the occurrence of mid-air collisions between aircraft. This work details a new version of the PCAN (prediction-based conflict-free adaptive navigation) algorithm proposed for tactical conflict resolution that considers the priority-aware flight classification policy incorporated to the U-Space concept of operations. Its evaluation shows that it is still possible to avoid any conflict between the set of aircraft in flight, with an insignificant detriment to higher-priority flights, while maintaining minimal detriment on average. View this paper
