Yet, despite the aforementioned benefits, the clandestine nature of drone operations has led to them becoming a point of debate in the world today, as they have become symbolic of various issues surrounding the so called The War on Terror.…

Unmanned Mission Communications Carlos Mennechey UNSY 601: Unmanned Systems Command, Control, and Communications Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University November 9, 2014 Transmission medium of signal propagation and its impact on operational design. The three systems selected to discuss the different communication designs over different domains are: the BlueFin UUV using a tethered fiber-optic connection. the RQ-2b Pioneer drone using the Tadiran Spectra Link RF communication for LOS. the Mars…

In an attempt to increase their effectiveness and capabilities, the military has employed the use of unmanned ariel vehicles (UAV’s).

The military should continue using drones because they provide an inexpensive oppurtunity to increase tactical superiority and keep our soldiers safe. One of the…

Global Hawk System Safety UAVs are a rapidly growing part of the aerospace world. Though they have mainly been utilized in military functions, the continued development of UAVs is leading toward civilian application in addition to continued military use. The use of UAVs in commercial environments brings with it a new set of safety risks which must be investigated, analyzed, and mitigated in order to ensure safe operation in the national airspace system (NAS). (Lum & Waggoner, 2011.) This paper…
