Abstract
An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is operated remotely using a Ground Control Station (GCS). Conventional GCS usually has limited range for it to be able to control and monitor the UAV due to limitations of the telemetry module. GCS capable of limitless range of connectivity with UAV will give a lot of advantage and unlock more potential of UAVs. This paper proposes the idea of implementing a web server as an intermediate communication component between UAV and GCS to realize the idea of unlimited range UAV control and monitoring. The web server is developed in Node.js environment with the help of Hapi Js framework. In addition, this paper also proposes the implementation of IoT device as an antenna tracker to improve the range of UA V telemetry modules and at the same time provide the connection to a web server on the internet. For this implementation, Raspberry Pi is chosen as an IoT device due to its capabilities and powerful specification. This system configuration will provide stable, wide range, and remote connectivity between UAV and GCS.
