Summary/Abstract: The constantly raising need of the integration of unmanned aerial vehicles and systems into the future ATM2 environment poses a significant challenge to all stakeholders of aviation. This study – within the „Új Széchenyi Terv (New Plan Szechenyi) „TÁMOP-4.2.1.B-11/2/KMR-2011-Critical infrastructure defending research” tender, and its subordinated plan, called „Data integration”, which highlighted project is the „Operations of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle and its aspects for Air Safety” – concentrates on the issue of communication between unmanned systems and air traffic services or air navigation service providers, highlighting the issue of safety and security risks of future unmanned aerial systems communication concepts. In this perspective the safety of UAS3 operations are highly dependent on redundant communication channels connecting the UAS operator to its vehicle and to the air traffic services. Further serious issue can be revelled in the field of security matters of communication links, like unlawful interaction into unmanned operations.
