Abstract

Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations are crucial for enabling the drone industry’s upcoming phase of UAV commercial acceleration. One of requirements to support BVLOS operations in UAV is mobile network with proper connectivity. In this study, the effect of UAV flight characteristic (altitude, attitude, and speed) to mobile network quality for UAV BVLOS operations will be analyzed. However, due to the time limitation of the publication, only preliminary results are presented. First, general technical framework including hardware, software, the data stream, and network coverage is described in the methodology. Then, a prototype UAV equips with Raspberry Pi and 4G connectivity is developed. A ground test is conducted to test functionality of the system. The preliminary result shows that the framework system functioning well in terms of transfer and receive data with the average latency 40 milliseconds. Next step, the flight test will be conducted to measure the effect of the UAV flight characteristics on the mobile network quality.

无人机飞行特性对无人机BVLOS移动网络质量的影响

超视距(BVLOS)操作对于无人机行业即将到来的无人机商业加速阶段至关重要。支持无人机BVLOS操作的要求之一是具有适当连接的移动网络。本研究将分析无人机飞行特性(高度、姿态和速度)对无人机BVLOS行动中移动网络质量的影响。然而，由于发表时间的限制，只给出了初步的结果。首先，在方法中描述了一般技术框架，包括硬件、软件、数据流和网络覆盖。然后，开发了配备树莓派和4G连接的原型无人机。地面测试是为了测试系统的功能。初步结果表明，该框架系统在传输和接收数据方面运行良好，平均延迟为40毫秒。下一步，将进行飞行试验，测量无人机飞行特性对移动网络质量的影响。
