The ground station is also equipped with smart power management, automated tether winding system, and GPS/GNSS positioning to maintain the orientation in unfavourable weather conditions. It is also equipped with a backup battery in case of malfunctions. The supply may be given directly from electricity mains or a generator. The ground station of the drone tether system will supply the power to the drone and the payload carried. Thus disaster response and law enforcement teams can easily deploy the drone without any expert assistance.Īs part of this drone project, we are going to develop two systems one is the ground station of the tether system and the drone.

Tethered drones can be operated by anyone without any pilot license or piloting experience. With the data being transmitted via fibre optic cable, drone tether systems are less susceptible to interference and it cannot be jammed like RF signals. It is used for surveillance, traffic monitoring, disaster response, security, event management, and in places where RF communication is not possible. The main purpose of using tethered drones is to get persistent data. Here the limiting factor is the altitude because the tethered drone has to carry the tether as well. Tethered drones can provide a maximum flight time of 24hrs based on the model. Due to the incompetence of fixed wings to hover, the Tether system is suitable for multirotor drones (quadcopter, hexacopter, octocopter). Tethered drones use a permanent physical wire which is connected to the ground tether station to get the power supply and commands. Drone Kit will be shipped to you and you can learn and build using tutorials.
