    The Vertical Challenge of Low-Altitude Economy: Why We Need a Unified Height System?

    The explosive growth of the low-altitude economy, driven by eVTOLs and UAVs, demands a unified digital infrastructure to ensure safety and scalability. However, the current aviation vertical references are dangerously fragmented: manned aviation relies on barometric pressure, cartography uses Mean Sea Level (MSL), and obstacle avoidance depends on Above Ground Level (AGL). This fragmentation creates significant ambiguity for autonomous systems and hinders cross-stakeholder interoperability. In this article, we propose Height Above Ellipsoid (HAE) as the standardized vertical reference for lower airspace. Unlike legacy systems prone to environmental drift and inconsistent datums, HAE provides a globally consistent, GNSS-native, and mathematically stable reference. We present a pragmatic bidirectional transformation framework to bridge HAE with legacy systems and demonstrate its efficacy through (1) real-world implementation in Shenzhen's partitioned airspace management, and (2) a probabilistic risk assessment driven by empirical flight logs from the PX4 ecosystem. Results show that transitioning to HAE reduces the required vertical separation minimum, effectively increasing dynamic airspace capacity while maintaining a target safety level. This work offers a roadmap for transitioning from analog height keeping to a digital-native vertical standard.(预印本;同行评审状态请核对原文。)

    Do Diffusion Models Dream of Electric Planes? Discrete and Continuous Simulation-Based Inference for Aircraft Design

    In this paper, we generate conceptual engineering designs of electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. We follow the paradigm of simulation-based inference (SBI), whereby we look to learn a posterior distribution over the full eVTOL design space. To learn this distribution, we sample over discrete aircraft configurations (topologies) and their corresponding set of continuous parameters. Therefore, we introduce a hierarchical probabilistic model consisting of two diffusion models. The first model leverages recent work on Riemannian Diffusion Language Modeling (RDLM) and Unified World Models (UWMs) to enable us to sample topologies from a discrete and continuous space. For the second model we introduce a masked diffusion approach to sample the corresponding parameters conditioned on the topology. Our approach rediscovers known trends and governing physical laws in aircraft design, while significantly accelerating design generation.(预印本;同行评审状态请核对原文。)

    High-Altitude Platforms in the Low-Altitude Economy: Bridging Communication, Computing, and Regulation

    The Low-Altitude Economy (LAE) is rapidly emerging as a new technological and industrial frontier, with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, and aerial swarms increasingly deployed in logistics, infrastructure inspection, security, and emergency response. However, the large-scale development of the LAE demands a reliable aerial foundation that ensures not only real-time connectivity and computational support, but also navigation integrity and safe airspace management for safety-critical operations. High-Altitude Platforms (HAPs), positioned at around 20 km, provide a unique balance between wide-area coverage and low-latency responsiveness. Compared with low earth orbit (LEO) satellites, HAPs are closer to end users and thus capable of delivering millisecond-level connectivity, fine-grained regulatory oversight, and powerful onboard computing and caching resources. Beyond connectivity and computation, HAPs-assisted sensing and regulation further enable navigation integrity and airspace trust, which are essential for safety-critical UAV and eVTOL operations in the LAE. This article proposes a five-stage evolutionary roadmap for HAPs in the LAE: from serving as aerial infrastructure bases, to becoming super back-ends for UAV, to acting as frontline support for ground users, further enabling swarm-scale UAV coordination, and ultimately advancing toward edge-air-cloud closed-loop autonomy. In parallel, HAPs complement LEO satellites and cloud infrastructures to form a global-regional-local three-tier architecture. Looking forwa(预印本;同行评审状态请核对原文。)

    Kalman Filtering Based Flight Management System Modeling for AAM Aircraft

    Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) operations are planned to utilize strategic flight planning services that predict temporal uncertainties to validate flight plans against hazards such as weather cells, restricted airspaces, and CNS disruption areas. This paper presents a Kalman Filter-based uncertainty propagation method that models Flight Management System (FMS) correction behavior through a sigmoid-blended measurement noise covariance. The sigmoid formulation generalizes existing discrete FMS activation thresholds into a continuous, tunable function that smoothly transitions the filter's measurement noise based on progress toward each waypoint. When the measurement noise is high, due to an inverse relationship, the Kalman gain is small and thus uncertainty grows; as the aircraft nears a waypoint, measurement noise decreases as a function of progress, the Kalman gain increases, and state covariance contracts which models the FMS progressively correcting toward the planned trajectory. The approach is computationally efficient (up to two orders of magnitude faster than Monte Carlo methods), scales with control inputs, and is parametrically tunable for different classes of aircraft. The measurement noise covariance is calibrated using real Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) data from commercial Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) flights serving as surrogates for future AAM operations, achieving coverage probability conservative relative to theoretical Gaussian predictions at the 1-sigma confidence level on a hold out verification dataset (N = 36).

    Impact of Physics-Informed Features on Neural Network Complexity for Li-ion Battery Voltage Prediction in Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing Aircrafts

    The electrification of vertical takeoff and landing aircraft demands high-fidelity battery management systems capable of predicting voltage response under aggressive power dynamics. While data-driven models offer high accuracy, they often require complex architectures and extensive training data. Conversely, equivalent circuit models (ECMs), such as the second-order model, offer physical interpretability but struggle with high C-rate non-linearities. This paper investigates the impact of integrating physics-based information into data-driven surrogate models. Specifically, we evaluate whether physics-informed features allow for the simplification of neural network architectures without compromising accuracy. Using the open-source electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) battery dataset, we compare pure data-driven models against physics-informed data models. Results demonstrate that physics-informed models achieve comparable accuracy to complex pure data-driven models while using up to 75% fewer trainable parameters, significantly reducing computational overhead for potential on-board deployment.(预印本;同行评审状态请核对原文。)
