Communication System of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for Detecting and Extinguishing Natural Fires
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The article analyses the existing communication systems of unmanned aerial vehicles designed for fire detection and extinguishing. Their disadvantages, such as limited data transmission speed, insufficient awareness in the communication system, lack of indication of the optimal communication channel range, focus on reducing and optimising information exchange without improving signal quality, as well as focus on use in marine conditions rather than on land areas, are revealed. An innovative method of natural fire detection and suppression is proposed as an alternative. Its structure and communication system are described, which is the most optimal, practical and capable of solving a wide range of tasks: from receiving and exchanging information between unmanned aerial vehicles and other aircraft or ground stations to collision avoidance and route optimisation.
