MAVLink Messaging Protocol as Potential Candidate for the UTM Communication

This paper provides a brief overview of the UTM structure focusing on technological capabilities outlined for robust communication. Selected general aspects for UAS communication link consideration were introduced as well as two potential candidates. The core of this paper examines a MAVLink communication protocol as potential candidate for data exchange medium betweenU TM provider and UVS to aggregate necessary data and information for unmanned traffic management such as remote identification, flight approval, tracking and traffic monitoring.
