Methodology for the feasibility study for drones' route in open and closed environment - case study of UFABC

摘要

Owing to the growth of the use of UAVs, a field study was conducted in relation to the powers of communication signals with UAVs. Through the signal propagation models Walfisch-Ikegami, Stanford University Interim (SUI) and ECC-33, was held the theoretical calculation of powers LTE and WI-FI. It was noticed that the mathematical models were limited to the 10 m signal reception. Finally, 3D heat maps were generated with data obtained by a drone equipped with tools for signal measurement.
