DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF STRUCTURALLY FEASIBLE SMALL UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLESTammannagari, Rohit Reddy 01 January 2010 (has links)
This study is focused on designing conformal antennas to be deployed with the inflatable wings for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV). The main emphasis is on utilizing the structure of the wing to develop antennas for various frequency bands, while maintaining the wing’s aerodynamic performance. An antenna modeler and optimizer software called 4NEC2 and a program called WIRECODE were used to design and determine the characteristics of the antennas. The effect of flexibility of the inflatable wing on the antenna characteristics during flight is also evaluated.
