Description
Summary:Our study stems from two specific requirements, namely to mount a homing system on the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) that is light but at the same time very precise. This question is solved by moving the entire control infrastructure to the ground thanks to very small and low-power high-frequency transmission systems. As an additional advantage, we have that of unloading the vehicle from all the avionics specifically dedicated to homing. Our study concerns the revision and updating of beamriding systems based on radio interferometry.
