• RC Transmitters: Use radio frequencies (typically 2.4 GHz) to control the drone’s movements (throttle, pitch, roll, yaw).
  • Telemetry Systems: Transmit real-time flight data (altitude, GPS, battery, etc.) from the drone to the operator using wireless frequencies (900 MHz or 2.4 GHz).
  • GPS: Essential for determining the drone’s location and enabling autonomous flight and waypoint navigation.
  • Wi-Fi: Used for communication and transferring photos/videos between the drone and the operator’s device.
  • FPV Systems: Provide real-time video feeds from the drone to the operator using low-latency transmission (5.8 GHz or 2.4 GHz).
  • Remote Data Links: Enable long-range control and monitoring of drones in BVLOS operations using specialized radio communication (900 MHz or 2.4 GHz).
  • LTE/4G/5G: Enables long-range control and data transfer over cellular networks for better reliability in covered areas.
  • Bluetooth: Used for short-range communication with accessories like controllers or devices for tasks like firmware updates.
  • RFID: Enables identification and tracking in industrial and logistical drone applications.
  • Mesh Networking: Allows drones to form wireless ad-hoc networks for collaborative missions or search and rescue.
