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.
