The Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate directed a study to identify, evaluate, and recommend viable communications, navigation, and surveillance systems and technologies to enable safe, secure, and efficient Urban Air Mobility operations in US cities. The focus is on UML-4, when commercial air taxi operations take place in all weather, are widespread, and include autonomous systems. This report recommends technologies for independent navigation, collaborative communication, and surveillance, based on capacity, availability, precision, and update rate, size, weight, power, cost and other values. Recommendations for maturing and implementing the technologies are included.
