This paper presents a quantitative analysis of the detection capabilities for U-Space applications using a solid-state LiDAR, specifically the Livox Avia. The focus of this study is the use of this technology as a ground surveillance system, with a particular emphasis on its potential installation in ground infrastructures such as a vertiports. A point cloud simulator was used to replicate the behavior of this device and the acquisition of moving obstacle point clouds was simulated. This information was processed to estimate the position, speed and size of different intruders. Multiple study cases were generated to evaluate the sensor performance under different operating conditions. Finally, a statistical analysis of the results was carried out to evaluate the influence of the distance, speed and size of the intruders on the results.
