A decentralized radio network for small groups of unmanned aerial vehicles

The investigation of a decentralized radio network dedicated to unmanned aerial systems (UASs) was presented in the paper. Two frequencies (315 MHz; 434 MHz) and five different configurations of Gaussian frequency-shift keying (GFSK) were taken into account. Three different algorithms for decentrali...

Description
Summary:The investigation of a decentralized radio network dedicated to unmanned aerial systems (UASs) was presented in the paper. Two frequencies (315 MHz; 434 MHz) and five different configurations of Gaussian frequency-shift keying (GFSK) were taken into account. Three different algorithms for decentralized networks were investigated and their influence on the network capacity was measured. The research was done both for static and dynamically changed unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) positions. In order to quantify the research three different parameters were determined: RSSI, nP (number of data packets in one second), and f (frequency of data update).
