However, in the proposal of MITRE conducted by Lascara et al (2019), there was no precise specification of what navigation performance requirements that UAM aircraft must meet to operate in DDCs.…”

“…Since the predicted demand for UAM aircraft to be integrated into the existing airspace system in the next ten years and beyond is at high volume, the aviation industry needs to address safety as one of the challenges under today's constructs to meet the safety requirements for provision to passenger carrying UAM. UAM may have potential utilization in many areas, such as non-scheduled urban air taxi (on-demand) flights, personal traveling, air emergency services, some existing UTM services because there is a need to modify the service reliability designed for small UAS operations to meet the safety requirements for provision to passenger carrying UAM (Lascara et al, 2019). UAM aircraft may create more complexity, more delays, and an increased hindrance to the current airspace system's existing facilities and resources.…”

“…The continuation of these restrictions signifies that projected operations of UAM may further be impeded even though new technologies and business models are available (Vascik, Hansman, & Dunn, 2018). (Lascara et al, 2019).…”

and policing services (Reiche et al., 2019). The aviation industry needs to address the technological, physical, functional, and integrational challenges of system-of-systems depending on each other to a large degree to make UAM viable (NASA, 2018). Many of the most critical problems to UAM are the capacity of the existing air traffic management system, the accessibility of takeoff and landing areas and charging systems on the ground, regulations and certifications, adverse weather conditions, pilot shortage, and public acceptance of aircraft noise (Vascik & Hansman, 2018). These challenges could hinder implementation and limit the sustainable growth of UAM systems. To tackle these challenges, many organizations in the aviation industry, academia, and government have conducted extensive studies on the issue of UAM vehicle development and technology. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has carried out numerous ongoing research projects that substantially support UAM. These continuing projects include "UAS Traffic Management (UTM) & UAS Integration in the NAS (UAS-NAS), Flight Demonstrations and Capabilities (FDC), X-57, Air Traffic Management-Exploration (ATM-X), System Wide Safety (SWS), Transformative Tools & Technologies (TTT), Revolutionary Vertical Lift Technologies (RVLT), and Advanced Air Mobility (AAM)" (NASA, 2019, p. 11). UAS are currently operating at low altitudes (e.g., below 400 feet). UAS have used the Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Traffic Management (UTM) services, which provides a set of traffic management services via a federated group of UTM Service Suppliers (USS), similar to traditional Air Traffic Control (ATC) services provided to IFR and VFR aircraft (Lascara et al., 2019). According to Ghayouraneh, El-Ghazaly, and Rankin (2018), UAM operations are expected to occur above 400 feet (between 1,000-3,000 feet). Even when transitioning from higher airspace to lower airspace (below 400 feet), UAM aircraft may not be able to leverage 58

“…The concept of Autonomous Urban Air Mobility (AUAM) has been presented by several authors using other names such as On-Demand Mobility (ODM), air taxis or vertical mobility. All these terms are used to describe on-demand, fully autonomous systems to transport passengers and/or cargo in an urban environment using airspace as a third dimension (2–4) .…”

A state-of-the-art review of all the developments, standards and regulations associated with the use of major unmanned aircraft systems under development is presented. Requirements and constraints are identified by evaluating technologies specific to urban air mobility, considering equivalent levels of safety required by current and future civil aviation standards. Strategies, technologies and lessons learnt from remotely piloted aviation and novel unmanned traffic management systems are taken as the starting point to assess operational scenarios for autonomous urban air mobility.
