Greg Fulmer Presentation
- 1. Harnessing Laser Communications for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Greg Fulmer George Mason University Information Technology
- 2. Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Remotely Operated Military and Civil Use Vary In Size 60 Hour Flight Times 65,000 ft. Altitudes Ground Control Station
- 3. Issues With UAV Communications Radio Waves HF/VHF/UHF SATCOM Speed Bandwidth Interference
- 4. Hypothesis Optical, or laser, communications can be implemented into UAV operations in order to provide faster signals and higher bandwidth rates.
- 5. Laser Communications Short wavelength = high frequency = high energy Greater bandwidths Maritime environments Deep space OICETS and LUCE
- 6. Disadvantages of Laser Comm. Line of site vs. over the horizon Precision pointing
- 7. Research Design – Step 1 Establish laser link between UAV and GCS Equipment needed: Predator MQ-1 Ground Control Station Test flight while monitoring systems
- 8. Research Design – Step 2 Establish laser link with test satellite and GCS Equipment needed: OICETS and LUCE Space Chamber GCS Monitor systems
- 9. Research Design – Step 3 Combine previous tests Equipment needed Predator MQ-1 Ground Control Station Orbiting OICETS satellite w/ LUCE system Test flights while monitoring systems
