Risk-Aware Markov Decision Process Contingency Management Autonomy for Uncrewed Aircraft Systems

What is it about?

Unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) are being increasingly adopted for a variety of applications. The risk UAS poses to people and property must be kept to acceptable levels. We propose a risk-aware contingency management autonomy to prevent an accident in the event of component malfunction, specifically propulsion unit failure and/or battery degradation.
