The Moscow Aviation Institute (MAI) has developed an innovative technology that allows continuous data and video transmission in real time from an unmanned aerial vehicle to a ground control station via 4G (LTE) mobile networks. This was reported in the press service of the university.
Our project allows us to increase the efficiency of unmanned aerial systems, ensuring the safe execution of flights and expanding areas of application through reliable data and video signal transmission to a remote control station.
The new technology can be used in monitoring agricultural land, observing infrastructure facilities, delivering goods, and conducting search and rescue operations. It is also suitable for performing other tasks that require information to be transmitted from the drone in real time.
The technical basis is a compact device weighing 360 grams with two independent 4G modems operating in parallel. This architecture allows you to automatically select the optimal data transmission channel depending on the signal quality and flight conditions, ensuring the stability of the communication channel even in conditions of variable network quality and when the device moves between base stations. The built-in computing platform manages the process of transmitting telemetry and video stream, minimizing delays and ensuring the continuity of the data transmission channel.
The device operates in extreme temperature conditions — from minus 40 to plus 60°C. The voltage of the consumed power is from 12 to 60 V.
Currently, the technology has been successfully tested. The development is fully ready for integration into domestic unmanned aerial systems and can be adapted to the specific requirements of industrial partners.
Earlier www1.ru reported that a new UAV recognition system based on acoustic signals was created in Saratov.
