Organisations responsible for regulation, law enforcement, safety and security use dedicated Counter UAS (cUAS) and Unmanned Traffic Management (UTM) systems to monitor for the presence and activity of Unmanned Arial Systems (UAS). To achieve this, multiple and dissimilar sensors need to be arranged either in clusters or distributed over large areas, such as an airport site or regional and national air corridors. Additionally, monitoring information may be provided by the UAS itself, and UTM service providers who will publish approved flight activity.This feasibility study will consider the scenario of an airport which has a need for both cUAS and UTM systems. To effectively correlate the information generated at an airport by multiple heterogeneous sensors, and compare detected or declared UAS activity against the authorised flight plans and permissions, it is essential that a reliable, robust and accurate method of time dissemination and synchronisation is available to all nodes across the entire network.A consortium formed of Operational Solutions, Cranfield and Hoptroff will use innovative methods of combining GNSS derived signals with terrestrial PTP over IP to efficiently and robustly transmit timing information between sensor nodes.

负责监管，执法，安全和保安使用专用反UAS（CUAS）和无人交通管理（UTM）系统的组织，以监视无人Arial Systems（UAS）的存在和活动。为了实现这一目标，需要在集群中安排多个和不同的传感器，或在大面积（例如机场现场或地区和国家空气走廊）上分布。此外，UAS本身可以提供监视信息，以及将发布批准的飞行活动的UTM服务提供商。此类可行性研究将考虑一个需要CUAS和UTM系统的机场的情况。要通过多个异质传感器有效地将机场在机场产生的信息相关联，并比较被检测到或宣布的UAS活动与授权的飞行计划和许可，至关重要的是，必须在整个网络中使用所有节点的所有节点可用来提供可靠，可靠和准确的时间传播和同步的方法。在IP上的陆地PTP将传感器节点之间的PTP高效，可靠地传输时间。
