How does UAV work?

Mr Aman Yadav November 07, 2021

 Hy this is Aman, and I welcome you again to my new blog, I hope you will find this useful and support my blog by sharing and commenting on it.

We provide you best articles related to Gaming, Technology, and Advanced Tech ( Soon we will provide you with the stock market and crypto-related blogs)

Check out our last blog about - What is the scope of Artificial Intelligence in future

So let's get started

Introduction 

UAV stands for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle which is popularly known as a drone. It is an aircraft with no pilot, crew, and passengers on board. The flight of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle may operate with various degrees of Autonomy i.e either under remote control by a human operator or onboard. 





Unmanned Aircraft System ( UAS ) includes UAV itself, Ground-Based controller, and system of communication. UAV originated in military applications, and with the span of time there use rapidly increase in commercial activities, Agriculture, and other applications such as policing, surveillance, product delivery, Aerial photography, drone racing, etc

In 1918, US Army first used it, and then in 1936, it is used again by US Navy and also used in Vietnam War.


Payload on UAV



Payload is basically the weight that a drone can carry, it is counted outside of the weight of the drone itself and includes anything additional to the drone such as sensors, camera, or anything else. The missile is an example of a drone that can carry a large amount of payload.

Working Principle of a UAV

The quadcopter is a type of Drone that has 4 propellers, it works mainly on the principle of aviation.
The quadcopter has four motors whose speed of rotation is changing. Rotation of motor changes as per signal sent by the controller with the help of Electronic Speed Controller ( ESC )
The signal from the microcontroller goes to ESC which changes the speed of the motor as per the drone is programmed, the program is written on an Arduino chip known as ATMEGA commonly has 16 chips inside it.
For generating upthrust two out of four propeller moves clockwise rest move anticlockwise.




Types of UAV

Types of UAVs based on their propellers -

  • Multi-Rotor 


  • Fixed Wing


  • Single Rotor Helicopter




  • Fixed-Wing Hybrid VTOL ( Vertical Take-Off and Landing )



Basic Material used for making a drone -
  • Circuit Board ( KK 2.15 )
  • Flight Controller
  • Propeller
  • BCDC Motor
  • 2.4 GHz Transmitter and Reciever
  • ESC ( Electronic Speed Controller )
  • Frame
  • Remote Control
  • 12V and 500 MaH 4 Lithium-ion Battery

Popular drones are available in the market nowadays -

  • The most popular drone in the market is the DJI Phantom series 
  • The highly advanced drone is DJI Mavic 2, DJI Mavic mini, DJI Mavic air 2, Phantom 2 Pro V20, Typhoon H3, Aeitel Evozete.

Some important points regarding UAV -
  • Most of the popular drones contain circuit boards, chipsets, etc
  • Drone controlled by a remote ground control system ( GCS ) and also known as the ground cockpit.
  • The material used in the highly advanced drone is a highly complex composite material that observes vibration and decreases sound production.
  • Most of the quadcopters are VTOL ( Vertically take-off and landing ) 
  • DJI Mavic mini can take off from the palm of our hand
  • Latest drones nowadays contain dual global navigation system ( GPS and GNSS )
  • The drone also used to create the 3D mapping, Survey, and land escape, and SAR ( Service and Rescue ) mission
  • Vision sensor, Ultrasonic sensor, Infrared sensor, lidar sensor ( for height ), time of flight sensor are the same sensors used by a UAV
  • ESC controls the motors of drones about speed, braking, provides monitoring and fault tolerance.
  • DJI Mavic 2 can fly up to 8 KM height and record 1080p recording.


So, this is for today, hope you enjoy our blog
