Оценка влияния непреднамеренных помех на линию вверх канала управления беспилотного летательного аппарата

Abstract

Modern unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are becoming increasingly important in solving many problems, for example, when delivering goods, video recording, conducting aerial monito¬ring of the condition of remote and hard-to-reach objects, etc. When solving these problems, UAVs may experience unintentional interference from other radio-electronic equipment (RES). Currently, virtually no attention is paid to issues related to the analysis of the quality of operation of civilian UAVs in the presence of unintentional interference from other civil electronic distribution systems. The proposed method is intended to somewhat fill this gap. It is based on the assumption that a decrease in the quality of reception of useful signals in the radio control channel below a certain value due to the low signal-to-noise ratio at the input of the UAV receiver in its bandwidth will lead to errors in the UAV flight control commands and the wrong starting of on-board specialized equipment. The level of the interfering signal delivered to the UAV receiver from a stationary land-based transmitter depends on interaction areas between transmitter and receiver antenna patterns. A method for determining these areas, consisting of main and side lobes of antenna patterns, is proposed. This method can be used to solve the more general problem of analyzing the electromagnetic compatibility of UAV radio stations, control panels and ground-based electronic devices, as it is an integral part of solving this problem.
