摘要

城市化催生了伦敦、纽约、巴黎、东京、北京和上海等许多大城市。在市民享受城市生活便利的同时，这些城市也存在交通弊端：过去几年中，平均通勤时间不断增加。随着电动垂直起降飞机（eVTOL）技术的成熟，决策者们开始将目光投向低空空域。这一蓝色空间有可能重塑交通系统，缩短日常生活中的平均旅行时间。为了探索这一新兴领域，我们举办了分布式/分散式运输与物流可持续性混合研讨会（DHW-STL），本信总结了我们的讨论成果。在此，我们首先指出了传统运输的痛点问题。然后，我们介绍了新兴的低空空域运输方案，接着讨论了这种新的运输方案如何与传统的地面运输系统相结合。最后，我们还将就进一步发展综合交通系统的途径分享一些想法。

The Potential of Low-Altitude Airspace: The Future of Urban Air Transportation

Many megacities, such as London, New York, Paris, Tokyo, Beijing, and Shanghai, have been born due to urban- ization. While citizens enjoy the convenience of city life, such cities suffer from drawbacks of transportation: the average commute time has been increasing over the past years. With the maturity of electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft technology, decision-makers have started to look upward to the low-altitude airspace. This blue space has the potential to reshape the transportation system and shorten the average travel time in daily life. To explore this emerging area, we held a Distributed/Decentralized Hybrid Workshop on Sustain- ability for Transportation and Logistics (DHW-STL), and this letter summarizes the outcomes of our discussion. Here, we first pinpoint the pain issues of conventional transportation. Then, we present the emerging low-altitude airspace transportation option, followed by a discussion on how such a new transportation option can integrate with the conventional ground-based transportation system. Some thoughts about the pathway to further development of the integrated transportation system are shared finally.

期刊介绍： The IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Vehicles (T-IV) is a premier platform for publishing peer-reviewed articles that present innovative research concepts, application results, significant theoretical findings, and application case studies in the field of intelligent vehicles. With a particular emphasis on automated vehicles within roadway environments, T-IV aims to raise awareness of pressing research and application challenges. Our focus is on providing critical information to the intelligent vehicle community, serving as a dissemination vehicle for IEEE ITS Society members and others interested in learning about the state-of-the-art developments and progress in research and applications related to intelligent vehicles. Join us in advancing knowledge and innovation in this dynamic field.
