The emergence of new aerial vehicles into the airspace as part of new initiatives, such as Advanced Air Mobility (AAM), will place growing demand for spectrum resources to support airspace operations. The traditional approach of using fixed channel allocations within standard service volumes will not allow for dynamic and efficient distribution of resources based on airspace demand; consequently, a new approach to aviation spectrum management will be required to meet the anticipated needs of airspace users. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is investigating the application of advanced concepts to implement a novel spectrum management approach that allows for the intelligent utilization of aviation spectrum throughout the airspace while maintaining the quality of service prescribed by aeronautical standards. This technical investigation evaluates the dynamic assignment of resources for both air-ground and air-air communication links applicable to both the emerging AAM initiative as well as the existing air traffic management system. The performance of the proposed spectrum management concepts will be evaluated using a custom modeling and simulation capability that is currently under development. The implementation of these approaches is anticipated to facilitate increased spectrum utilization efficiency and enhanced airspace capacity, which will better serve the needs of future applications.
