Emerging concepts for advanced urban air mobility envision responsive air transportation capabilities that will safely move people and cargo in locations presently underserved by aviation. Expanding aviation services to these locales, particularly for high-density autonomous flight operations over urban centers, will require advances beyond the state-of-the-art techniques for airborne sensing. The emerging field of distributed sensing and ‘smart spaces’ – where sensing, processing, communication, and actuation are embedded in the environment in which agents are acting – may provide attractive alternatives over traditional aviation solutions. This paper outlines the challenges and opportunities for distributed sensing and smart space concepts to meet the emerging needs of advanced urban operations in the national airspace. We present an overview of distributed sensing concepts and research currently being investigated under this endeavor.
