Cover Story: Advanced Air Mobility (UAM) is a concept of transportation system that aims to integrate new types of aircraft in complex airspaces, such as urban areas. This concept proposes the implementation of aerial highways, the so-called UAM Corridors, where manned and unmanned aircraft would perform their operations. One of the main challenges for the implementation of UAM Corridors is the development of a ‘Detect and Avoid’ system. During operations, unmanned aircraft must be able to detect the presence of other airspace users to adapt their behavior and guarantee the safety of operations. In this work, a LiDAR sensor was simulated to replicate the onboard detection capabilities of this technology. In addition, a Second-Order Cone Program was implemented to calculate avoidance trajectories if a risk of collision is detected. Different case studies were developed to validate the concept.
