Development of effective sense and avoid systems is a critical challenge for operation of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) in the National Airspace. A key issue is achieving detection of potential targets at sufficient range to achieve a low probability of collision with lightweight, low cost sensors suitable for UAS. We present a closed form analytical approach to designing the minimum required sensing range based on worst-case collision encounter geometries. Using a minimum safe distance of 500 ft and known velocities for several different aircraft, this minimum required sensing range is found to be approximately 1.861 km using slack parameter of δr = 0.0354. We demonstrate that this is a feasible result by describing a radar sensor prototype that achieves the required minimum sensing range.
