OSED: Operational Recommendations
REC Recommendation REC Recommendation
[REC:1] The C-UAS system should support open standards to allow for scalability with existing systems and future systems and innovation, e.g. new sensors, new countermeasures, new UAS service providers or other third-party systems
[REC:2] The C-UAS system should be able to continuously (24/7) provide the necessary information to support alerts on unauthorized UAS.
[REC:3] The C-UAS system should be able to provide the necessary information to support the distinction between unauthorized and authorized drones.
[REC:4] The C-UAS system should provide additional information about the detected UAS (size, type/model, operator/RP location, payload, …).
[REC:5] The C-UAS system should be ready to support a combination of multiple types of detection technologies in order to improve C-UAS performance.
[REC:6] Relevant information from the CUAS system should be shared across incident management or workflow management tools to coordinate stakeholder response activities.
[REC:7] The C-UAS system should evaluate unpredictable and undesired effects into the environment, other UAS and manned aircraft, when active components e.g. sensors and neutralization measures are intended to be used.

SPR and INTEROP
• Once OSED is under Open Consultation, new stage focused on SPR and
INTEROP has been recently opened.
• According to the TOR:
• 2nd Deliverable
• Title: System Performance Requirements (SPR) for non-
cooperative UAS detection systems.
• Purpose and justification of the proposal: Create a
performance specification for non-cooperative surveillance
systems for detection of UAS in controlled airspace, especially in
the vicinity of airports. Provide performance parameters and an
unambiguous set of system minimum requirements.
• Note: TOR states “The topic of cooperative targets detection is not
to be addressed, but interaction with information from cooperative
sensors should be included in the overall system assessment”
Detection System
Performance
Provide the information required to react
against non-authorised UAS operating in
a defined perimeter around an airport
Focus is on non-cooperative detection, as U-Space
(UTM) will address cooperative/collaborative UAS

SPR and INTEROP
• 3rd Deliverable
• Deliverable title: Interoperability (INTEROP) Requirements for
Counter-UAS systems.
• Purpose and justification of the proposal:
• Take into account the need for real time and high-quality data
transmission of non-cooperative sensor systems for the detection
of UAS. Derive a set of minimum interface requirements and an
interface description to the existing A-SMGCS at airports and to
other partner systems for the display and alerting of UAS.
• Consider effects and performance of typical defeating
capacities of C-UAS system and their impact on existing airport
and ANSP systems, and derive interoperability requirements.
• Note: TOR states “… but interaction with information from
cooperative sensor should be included in the overall system
assessment”

✈ OSED - Chapter 3 (Operational Services)✈ Operational Service “Detection”: “The data collection process could
interface with ATM, UTM/U-space, and other available services for exchanging of information” (Detection by C-UAS)”.
✈ OSED - Chapter 4 (Operational Environment)✈ Regarding ATM/ATC:
✈C-UAS procedures should be coordinated in advance with ATM representatives to ensure de-confliction and effective integration of detection and response efforts
✈ [REQ:14] The C-UAS system shall be able to interface with existing ATM system for exchange of information on collaborative/cooperative aircraft or UAS.
✈ Regarding UTM/U-Space:✈UTM/U-Space systems may assist authorities with performing rapid identification
of the authorization status and the identification of UAS near the airport environment. This information can aid in differentiating UAS flights performing legitimate operations from those operations that are illegitimate
✈ [REQ:15] The C-UAS system shall interface with appropriate UTM/U-Space systems and services for exchange of information on collaborative/cooperative UAS or other relevant information.
