Low-altitude airspace security involves the measures, technologies, and frameworks used to monitor and protect the airspace typically extending from the ground to 500 feet. This domain is specifically designed to address the unique challenges posed by small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) in urban environments and near critical infrastructure. The objective is a comprehensive Detect, Track, Read more

Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS)
Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) refers to the operation of an Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) at distances where the remote pilot cannot maintain direct, unaided visual contact with the aircraft. Unlike Visual Line of Sight (VLOS) operations, which require the pilot to observe the drone’s attitude and altitude manually, BVLOS relies on a digital Read more
Line of Sight (LOS)
Line of Sight (LOS) refers to the direct, unobstructed visual or radio path between a drone and its operator or control station.In unmanned aerial system (UAS) operations, LOS has two main contexts: In C-UAS operations, LOS defines both detection effectiveness and communication link vulnerability, influencing how systems locate, identify, and neutralize drones.
