Situational Awareness of all Aircraft
The UAS-C System securely integrates with existing ATC Surveillance Systems to support ALL UAV operations flying Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) including flying in or through Controlled airspace regardless of size or altitude. The UAS-C has addressed the major surveillance challenges flying BVLOS and/or in controlled airspace creating a ubiquitous surveillance picture for critical operations in controlled airspace.
Who is the UAS-C Solution for:
UAV Tracking:
Tracking of UAV‘s does not rely on Radar or ADS-B. By connecting to the UAS Ground Control System (GCS), Sunhillo’s UAS-Connector (UAS-C) converts the positional data that is already being sent from the UAS to the GCS into a radar or ADS-B message using Sunhillo’s proprietary software with no equipment required on the aircraft. This message can then be sent to ATC or a local command center and displayed with other radar and ADS-B targets for situational awareness. The UAS-C can be used remotely via LTE or directly connected via Ethernet.
Situational Awareness:
Both manned and unmanned aircraft pilots have a complete visual situational awareness picture. The UAS-C provides the pilot with a See and Avoid display showing all aircraft (via Radar and ADS-B) in the immediate area as well as sending the location of the UAV to ATC or a local command center.
Provides a proprietary connection to the UAV Ground Control Station to receive the positional information and forwards the data to the UAS-C Gateway. Provides feed for UAS pilot See & Avoid Display.
Accepts and decodes ADS-B to track equipped aircraft and sends the data to the Brigantine SGP / UAS-C Gateway for display on the SMS.
Acts as the conduit to provide updated aircraft positions of all participating UAS-C units, Receives the ADS-B or optional Radar feeds, and processes them to the Surveillance Monitoring System (SMS) display. The Gateway then returns the fused surveillance data to the PIC for See & Avoid.
Situational Awareness display of radar, ADS-B, and UAS targets. Ownship moving map with boundary alerts, Geographic filtering, and Image overlays.

Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) can be valuable tools in emergency response. They accelerate response and increase the safety of first responders and people in distress. With regulatory approval for routine BVLOS UAS operations in the National Airspace System (NAS) emerging as a near-term priority, the use of UAS in real world disaster response has become a real prospect.
Sunhillo’s UAS-C System was used in this Emergency Management UAS Operation Demonstration at Woodbine Airport in June of 2021 to track the UAS flying a 12 mile BVLOS mission, track the chase aircraft, and provide situational awareness of manned aircraft via ADS-B to the pilot and the command center.
Providing surveillance data distribution and conversion solutions to the FAA, DOD, and civil aviation authorities worldwide since 1991
