SIRIUS

Simulation Infrastructure for Research on Interoperating Unmanned Systems (SIRIUS) is a research framework for simulation and analysis of future concepts for Urban Air Mobility (UAM) operations. SIRIUS provides an intuitive, highly configurable graphical user interface to design complex traffic scenarios and airspace configurations representative of conceptual UAM operations. Aircraft simulated with SIRIUS can be equipped with flight-tested capabilities for detect and avoid (DAA), geofencing, distributed merging and spacing, path conformance, and path planning while executing time- constrained, 4D trajectories generated by a UAM ground operations system. SIRIUS enables distributed simulation of large-scale scenarios. An interactive graphical analysis capability helps isolate, visualize, and compare relevant vehicle state data and widely used measures of performance metrics across multiple scenarios.
