SISCANT II - Development and certification of advanced systems of control for UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles)

December 2005 - June 2008

Funding entity Ministerio de Industria, Turismo y Comercio

Participated by TCP Sistemas e Ingeniería, S.L, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, UAV Navigation


Project SISCANT II supposes continuity to the begun investigation and development with project SISCANT (Exp. FIT-330101-2004-0013).
While SISCANT must like objective cover the necessity to develop new solutions of control of aerospace critical systems that allow a greater survival to failures during the flight; SISCANT II will try to take advantage of the results SISCANT to elaborate solutions that allow the use of aerial systems in workings of interest for the society as they are: environmental workings, monitoring of borders, rescue in adverse climatologic conditions, terrestrial and marine systematic prospection, traffic control of the land, etc.
SISCANT II in addition will center their efforts in the certification system level of critical systems, like a System of Control of Flight; complementing the effort that is being made in SISCANT on the certification of software. It is in this scope where it is going to more actively participation the Instituto de Investigación Tecnológica of the ETSI ICAI of the Universidad Pontificia Comillas. The objective is to elaborate and to implement the methodology, with its processes and necessary techniques for the certification of critical systems according to the standards used in civil aviation (ARP 4761 and ARP 4754).
