Abstract


The Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) are becoming more and more accessible and their applications will grow with various utility’s from military fields with specific missions to civil so that in-depth research, in which all this types of UAV’s will operate in the future airspace, has to be done via a new concept on systems centralized autonomous control system. Approach of a Multi-Agent System (MAS) used for the development of an autonomous UAV Control System is presented. In the proposed model some processes are simplified, however it is unique, and can be used as it to help UAV’s operate in the flight airspace. This system will serve many UAV users to help them work in the same defined airspace without concerns regarding safety. The proposed model is a new concept of a multi-agent system design, simulated in NetLogo software, which include the parameters necessary to function with the objective to maintaining separation.

Keywords
