“…The energy transmission carrier of this technology is laser beam, which receives laser energy through a photovoltaic receiver for photoelectric conversion, thus realizing long-range wireless transmission of energy [ 98 ]. Compared to the UAV with a traditional power supply, the laser wireless energy transmission technology improves the endurance of UAV by 24 times [ 99 ]. At present, there are relatively few researches on wireless laser power supply technology for UAVs.…”

“…In 2013, the United States successfully tested the power of a wireless laser charging system using a quad-rotor UAV. Subsequently, the US department of defense plans to develop a new Bat UAV that can fly automatically using laser wireless charging technology [ 99 , 100 ]. As shown in Figure 12 , the UAV laser wireless energy transmission system is mainly composed of a ground laser energy transmitter and a laser energy receiver.…”

With the continuous maturity of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) in materials, communications, and other related technologies, the UAV industry has developed rapidly in recent years. In order to cope with the diversified emerging business forms, the explosive growth of the scale of data traffic, number of terminal connections, high reliability, low-latency, and high transmission rate provided by the fifth generation (5G) network will inject new vitality into the development of the UAVs industry. In this paper, optical wireless technology is introduced into the UAV platform, combining theory with practical applications. We explain many research advances and key technologies in the four aspects of “air, space, earth, and sea” to achieve a strong and broadband communication link. This discussion focuses on link modeling, parameter optimization, experimental testing, and the status quo of UAVs in different application scenarios with optical wireless link configurations. At the same time, based on the current situation of UAV optical wireless technology, the technical problems and the research direction in the future are also discussed.
