5、itecture DescriptionRATIONALEThis document is the SAE publication of the Department of Defense UAS Control Segment (UCS) Architecture: Architecture Description Version 3.4(PR) approved for Distribution A public release 15.S-1859.FOREWORDThis Architecture Description (AD) establishes the content of t

6、he SAE Unmanned Systems (UxS) Control Segment (UCS) Architecture. The UCS Architecture is expressed by a library of SAE publications, of which this publication is the highest in the document tree. The official designation of the UCS Architecture is therefore AS6512. The other SAE publications in the

7、 UCS Architecture Library are: AS6513, AIR6514, AIR6515, AIR6516, AIR6517, AS6518, AIR6519, AIR6520, AIR6521, and AS6522.The UCS Architecture was originally applicable to all systems that control unmanned aircraft above 10kg gross take-offweight (nominal), however it has since been extended to addre

8、ss all unmanned systems whose means of conveyance includes air, water, and ground. This extension will be fully addressed in later revisions of the standard. The UCS Architecture is concerned with control station software but not the control station software external environment, which including inf

9、ormation access, communications, and human-computer interfaces.The UCS Architecture defines a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and modeling framework for the specification, integration, implementation, and deployment of control station software. The architecture is centered on a SOA Platform Inde

10、pendent Model (PIM) and associated foundation models. Platform independence (independence of the software operating environment) allows the UCS Architecture to be implemented on different computing infrastructures and with different communication protocols. This supports technology insertion and ado

11、ption on multiple UCS systems and related architectures.The UCS Architecture is extensible and describes approximately 150 application software services to support the current capabilities of military UAS. The architecture is deployable on any control station from a hand-held device to a fixed facil

12、ity with multiple mission planners, operators, and analysts.The United States Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) UCS Working Group developed the UCS Architecture through Release 3.4. In April 2015, governance and management of the UCS Architecture was transferred to the SAE AS-4UCS Technical C

13、ommittee. The historical purpose and rationale for the OSD UCS Architecture is set out in the documentation associated with Release 3.4. The SAE UCS Architecture Library is a subset of the configuration items in that release. The SAE UCS Architecture Library omits OSD planning documentation and some

14、 OSD guidance documentation applicable to Department of Defense programs of record.SAE INTERNATIONAL AS6512 Page 2 of 50TABLE OF CONTENTS1.
