Abstract

Napretkom tehnologije mobilnih mreža, pogotovo dolaskom mobilnih mreža pete generacije postaje moguće prenijeti dostatnu količinu informacija s malom latencijom. U istom trenu tehnologija bespilotnih letjelica također napreduje te trenutno omogućuje bogatu senzorsku opremu, stabilne letne karakteristike ali i sve dulje vrijeme leta. Jedan od najvećih nedostataka bespilotnih letjelica danas jest domet koji je limitiran vrstom daljinskog upravljača. Ovim diplomskim radom istražuju se inovativni načini autonomnog upravljanja bespilotnim letjelicama (primarno kvadkoptera), također rad pruža uvid u mogućnosti i limitacije mobilne mreže na visinama na kojima lete bespilotne letjelice, kao glavnog medija komunikacije između letjelice i upravljačkih sustava na zemlji. Rad objašnjava koncept sustava za upravljanje prometom mobilnih letjelica te koji su sve podsustavi potrebni kako bi se on realizirao i opisuju se autonomne procedure i način rada tog sustava te isto tako se pokriva slučaj kada letjelicom upravlja operater. Nadalje, rad pruža uvid u performanse mobilne mreže na visinama leta drona pomoću terenskih istraživanja koja su provedena u Finskoj. Na kraju rada su dani prijedlozi budućih implementacija autonomnih sustava upravljanja dronovima na konkretnim slučajevima uporabe.

Abstract (english)

With the advance of mobile network technology, especially with the arrival of the fifth generation mobile networks it has become possible to transmit a substantial amount of data with little latency. At the same time unmanned aerial vehicle technology has also advanced and at the moment it allows for a rich sensor package, stable flight characteristics and longer flight time. One of the biggest drawbacks of drones today is the range which is limited due to the controller. This thesis researches innovative autonomous drone control systems, also the thesis provides an insight into the possibilities and limitations of the mobile network at which drones fly, as the main communications channel between the aircraft and ground control systems. The thesis researches the concept of the unmanned aerial vehicle traffic management system, all the subsystems necessary for its operation and the autonomous procedures and protocols of the system, also the case when the operator is flying the drone is also covered. Further, the thesis gives insights into the mobile network performance at altitudes at which drones fly with the help of field measurements which have been conducted in Finland. At the end of the thesis future proposals for the implementation of autonomous drone control systems have been given on specific use cases.
