Project

AMI-PGS

Integration of eVTOLs into existing manned air transport.

The Air Mobility Initiative - Positioning & Guidance Systems (AMI-PGS) funding project is a research project within the Air Mobility Initiative (AMI) that focuses on the requirements of eVTOLs (electrically powered vertical take-off and landing aircraft). At its core, the project is concerned with novel take-off and landing procedures, GNSS-independent positioning, and connections and information flow to an Unmanned Traffic Management (UTM) system.

Investigation

How eVTOLs can be integrated into existing manned aviation operations.

Analysis

and definition of requirements for take-off and landing procedures of eVTOLs.

Testing

how eVTOLs can be connected to a country system as well as Droniq's UTM system

Project duration

Project start: January 2023 Project end: December 2025

Our contribution

The goal

The goal is to enable the integration of eVTOLs into existing air traffic and increase the safety and efficiency of aircraft movements.

AMI-PGS is part of the AMI initiative (Air Mobility Initiative).

The implementation

The AMI-PGS project is being implemented in several steps: First, requirements for takeoff and landing procedures for eVTOLs are analyzed and defined. Legal and regulatory framework conditions are also taken into account. Subsequently, the project partners will design and test various concepts for the positioning and guidance of eVTOLs. Among other things, the connection to a UTM system that enables the flow of information between the eVTOLs and other air traffic participants will be investigated.

Our contribution

As part of the AMI-PGS project, Droniq is enabling and testing the connection of the eVTOLs or landing system to its own UAS Traffic Management System (UTM). For this purpose, Droniq uses its products and solutions for drone traffic integration, such as antenna sensing and UTM environment.

With these technologies, Droniq supports the positioning and guidance of eVTOLs and ensures the flow of information between eVTOLs and other air traffic participants within the UTM.

More projects & customer stories

Use Case
ABGnova

Surveying and inspecting construction sites, as well as checking the progress of construction, can be done faster, more accurately and more economically by drone.
Use Case
Evonik

Drones are a valuable tool for the plant fire department or plant security. Droniq trained Evonik employees at three sites in the theory and practice of safe handling of these unmanned aerial vehicles.
Use Case
DFMG Deutsche Funkturm

Droniq advised Deutsche Funkturm on the aerial flight of the Berlin TV tower by drone to collect data for a detailed 3D model and ensured the necessary approvals - an enormous challenge from an aviation law perspective.
Use Case
FlyNex / MITNETZ STROM

Power lines have to be inspected regularly for bird nests and erosion - a time-consuming and costly task. For Mitnetz Strom, FlyNex flew a route by drone, Droniq supported with the HOD4track.
Use Case
Institute of the Fire Brigade NRW

Drones can provide valuable information for firefighters. The IdF NRW wants to include drone operation in the standard portfolio for fire departments in NRW, and Droniq provided the appropriate training specifically for official use.
Use Case
LARUS

How can a drone find drowning victims on the open sea? That's what the LARUS project investigated. Thanks to Droniq's aerial situational awareness, dangerous approaches with manned air traffic could be avoided.
Use Case
Thyssengas

The pipeline network of the gas transport network operator Thyssengas covers around 4,200 km. The pipelines have to be flown regularly - this will be done by drones in the future. Droniq supports this with an LTE modem (HOD4track) as well as aerial displays of the relevant air traffic in the vicinity.
Use Case
Wingcopter

What would otherwise be done by a small truck can be done much faster, quieter and more environmentally friendly by drone. Wingcopter tested a transport of samples from a plant to the central laboratory for the industrial company Merck.
Project
AMIUS

AMIUS is establishing the first integrated Bavarian U-Space as its overall goal. AMIUS is part of the Air Mobility Initiative (AMI), which is funded by the Free State of Bavaria and the Federal Republic of Germany and initiates a number of research projects.
Project
OWL

The EULE project aims to realize the safe & efficient transport of medical goods by means of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) with the goal of efficiently networking hospitals, laboratories and pharmaceutical wholesalers in the Rhineland area.
Project
LUV

The objective of LUV is to develop recommendations for action for the national implementation of the U-Space Regulation (DVO (EU) 2021/664), taking into account technical, legal and organizational contexts.
Project
RescueFly

The RescueFly project intends to develop and deploy decentralized - in modern & technically advanced drone garages - drones connected online to a rescue center to support water rescue in hard-to-reach areas of Lusatia.
