Özet

© 2021, Emerald Publishing Limited.Purpose: The study aims to design a new route model for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to integrate them into non-segregated airspace. Design/methodology/approach: The proposed route model was assessed and validated through real-time simulations. Findings: The comparison results of baseline and proposed route model show that a reduction of 38% and 41% in the total flight time and total flight distance were obtained in favour of the proposed model, respectively. Practical implications: The proposed route model can be applied by airspace designers and UAV users to perform safe and efficient landing in non-segregated airspace. Originality/value: In this study, a new proposed route model is constructed for UAVs. Quantitative results, using a real-time simulation method, are achieved in terms of flight distance and flight time.
