“…A flight inspection drone is proposed by [9] for ILS/DME and PAPI measurements but at less than 50 km with a ground-based GPS augmentation system. The hexacopter, a small UAV proposed by [10], allows measurements for ILS and VOR within the airport with a ground DGPS system. A MALE drone with an autonomy of 10 flight hours is proposed by [24], but the solution is based on a ground augmentation system (DGPS).…”

“…They show that the general trend is to use UAVs for in-flight inspections in the future. In [10],the authors present an Unmanned Aerial System (UAS), called position information by GPS and coded overlay navigation signals (PIGEONS). The system uses a lightweight hexacopter, with a wingspan of 55 cm, that performs autonomous flight and uses an on-board Software Defined Radio (SDR) that measures instrument landing systems (ILS) and VHF omnidirectional range (VOR) [10].…”

International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). This activity has been carried out for decades by conventional aircraft and is usually done at low altitude around airports. This makes the task very dangerous and costly in terms of human lives. The use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAVs) or Drone to provide flight inspection and to progressively replace conventional aircraft through two measurement methods are described in this paper. We also propose an improved real-time trajectography system based on a Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) correction, a comparative cost study between aircraft and UAV, while proposing levers for reducing flight inspection time and thus reducing costs. Study of environmental impact of flight inspection is discussed and strategies for using drones to reduce flight inspection costs are also discussed. From this study we draw the conclusions that flight inspection by drone allows first of all the risk of accident reduction for the navigation personnel on board and therefore a completely safe conduct of flight inspection; also it is cheaper for the air navigation services to use drones in addition to the fact that they are ecological solutions as they produces less greenhouse gases unlike the aircraft.

“…Their numerical results show that SDR-based UAVs can significantly improve throughput when compared with traditional UAVs. The development of SDR-based UAVs testbeds were also the subject of the study in (DUNNE; KEENLANCE, 2018), (ANDERSON; FREW; GRUNWALD, 2015) and (Sommer et al, 2020).…”

This article reports an SDR (software-defined radio) operating as a receiver for nearfield measurement, aiming at EMC pre-compliance tests. The SDR replaces professional-grade RF instrumentation with benefits, with lower costs. Its software application is based on open-source GNU-Radio, which grants a higher versatility to the signal processing and visualization, requiring a single laptop to analyze the data and control the whole system, in real time. Reported tests used two commercial PCB magnetic field probes, and a proof-of-concept near-field imaging is performed in an L-shaped transmission line at 1100 MHz.
