This paper proposed the Mission Based Collision Avoidance Protocol (MBCAP), a novel UAV collision avoidance protocol applicable to all types of multicopters flying autonomously. It relies on wireless communications in order to detect nearby UAVs, and to negotiate the procedure to avoid any potential collision. Experimental and simulation results demonstrated the validity and effectiveness of the proposed solution, which typically introduces a small overhead in the range of 15 to 42 s for each risky situation successfully handled. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/RTI2018-096384-B-100 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 3.275 2019 CHEMISTRY, ANALYTICAL 22 / 86 = 0.256 2019 Q2 T1 INSTRUMENTS & INSTRUMENTATION 15 / 64 = 0.234 2019 Q1 T1 ENGINEERING, ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC 77 / 266 = 0.289 2019 Q2 T1 0.653 2019 Instrumentation 2019 Q1 Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics 2019 Q2 Medicine (miscellaneous) 2019 Q2 Information Systems 2019 Q2 Analytical Chemistry 2019 Q2 Electrical and Electronic Engineering 2019 Q2 Biochemistry 2019 Q3 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Zamora, William (orcid)0000-0001-7657-0075 Sangüesa, Julio Calafate, Carlos T.
