Development of a ground station software for a vertical take-off/landing unmanned aerial vehicle

摘要

With the modernization and commercialization of the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) industry, new unmanned aircraft system (UAS) designs are being researched and developed for a variety of applications in the civil market. This project is for a vertical take-off/landing (VTOL) UAV which is being developed for new and cost-effective agricultural solutions. The proposed design entails setting up a new ground station facility for the UAV. This paper addresses the design, simulation, development and implementation of software for this VTOL UAV's transmitter and ground control station receiver.
