... , which is specific to perform risk assessments in the U-space. This methodology covers the success approach (risk mitigation by providing U-space services with a specific performance) and the failure approach (risks caused by abnormal conditions and system-generated faults) in a comprehensive way. The risk assessment specifically addresses the impact of Artificial Intelligence systems used to increase automation of operations in safety-critical applications.
