Abstract

Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) are undoubtedly a rising value that marked the 21st century in the aviation industry. Recently, both the high and precise technology used in aviation and the rapid development of artificial intelligence have enabled these remotely controlled aircrafts to find widespread use in the civilian field. Even these smart technologies and artificial intelligence transformed the UAS into different forms like flying swarm in the airspace and Urban Air Mobility (UAM) which comprises passenger and cargo transportation without pilot in metropolitan cities. In this chapter, the technological evolution of UAS is examined in the historical process, the components that make up UAS are explained, and UAS classification considering various characteristics with different aspects is detailed. Finally, issues resulting from strategies, concepts, and regulations falling behind evolving UAS technologies with aviation management perspective are discussed.
