UAV Marketplace Simulation Tool for BVLOS Operations

Abstract

We present a simulation tool for evaluating team formation in autonomous multi-UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) missions that operate Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS). The tool models UAV collaboration and mission execution in dynamic and adversarial conditions, where Byzantine UAVs attempt to disrupt operations. Our tool allows researchers to integrate and compare various team formation strategies in a controlled environment with configurable mission parameters and adversarial behaviors. The log of each simulation run is stored in a structured way along with performance metrics so that statistical analysis could be done straightforwardly. The tool is versatile for testing and improving UAV coordination strategies in real-world applications.
