A Modular Design Concept for Vertiports in Urban Air Mobility Systems

open access: yes, 2022
Current technological developments open up the possibility of implementing airborne passenger transport in urban areas. The concepts for urban air transport are mostly based on so-called vertiports and vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) vehicles with ...

Estimating Atmospheric Turbulence Intensity From Cup Anemometer Data

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Conventional cup anemometers are widely used but limited by coarse sampling in representing turbulence. To address this, we introduce a cumulative spectral density (CSD) approach that quantifies turbulence contributions from 1‐min wind speed records while explicitly accounting for aliasing.

Mobility Management for the Low‐Altitude Economy: Latency‐Aware Handover Design

open access: yesIET Communications, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This paper develops a latency‐aware mobility‐management framework for aerial vehicles operating in hybrid terrestrial non‐terrestrial networks. We formulate a MILP for optimal AV AP association and propose a greedy handover policy using predicted coverage, rate and handover latency.

Placering av Vertiports – Persontrafik och Gods : Integrering av drönare och eVTOL för persontransporter  och gods vid flygplatser, i städer och på landsbygd

open access: yes, 2023
Flygplatserna är viktiga multimodala nav där olika transportslag möts. I en nära framtid kommer eVTOL vara en del av transportsystemet, utvecklingen går snabbt och redan idag finns flygande prototyper.

GRID‐Routing: A Proposal for Massive Traffic Management in Urban Air Mobility

open access: yesIET Intelligent Transport Systems, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
Our manuscript introduces a novel grid‐based airspace structure and a physically consistent flight plan model that together enable scalable, conflict‐free trajectory planning for high‐density Urban Air Mobility operations. Extensive validation experiments, including stress‐load scenarios, demonstrate that the proposed framework ensures safe and ...
