In this survey, we look at the overall idea of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) and autonomous control, as well as RPAS infrastructure, levels of autonomy, and current benefits and difficulties in the field when utilizing Artificial Intelligence. While current remotely piloted aircraft systems have a manual pilot operator to provide double-layer security and safety, studies show that having RPAS with a fully autonomous vehicle at its centre could significantly improve decision-making and overall mission precision, accuracy, safety, and efficiency.
