  Abstract

Recently, meanwhile the various types of drone products have been launched and deployed, most of them have performed transmitting the multimedia data by exploiting Wi-Fi communication interface. The given environment of communications has a limitation at the viewpoint of transmission range, and the energy efficiency of the transmission should be addressed with consideration of that drones are operated by only battery. Moreover, a method of long range communication should be required on the sea or mountainous area, meanwhile, the operation cost should be considered when exploiting cellular networks such as LTE. In this paper, the implemented communication module which is designed for providing the functional method of long range and low power transmission in Sub-GHz band would be introduced. The prototype module is developed with the commercial transceiver of CC1310 manufactured by TI, and the previously proposed MAC protocol is also implemented in software level. In addition, the routing algorithm is also implemented by employing the previous TA-DZR algorithm for providing inter-drone ad hoc network organization with the assumption of drone swarm flight. All results are validated through the indoor and the outdoor test environment.
