Abstract
With the advent of industry 4.0 technologies like the artificial intelligence and the autonomous flight, 'Urban Air Mobility (UAM)' is being considered as an effective alternative to resolve the ground urban traffic congestion. Accordingly, many companies in the world including Korea are investigating on the development of UAM vehicles and operation systems. In this study, after identifying and classifying the essential elements of the UAM operation, the UAM system operational concept has been derived, then detailed analyses for each element has been performed. Based on the conceptual analysis of the UAM operation system, UAM flight routes in Seoul and Gyeong-In area have been established and confirmed to be operable through the performance analysis of UAM vehicles. The flight route analysis in this study is expected to be applied to UAM flight routes establishment in various cities in the future.
