Journal ArticleDOI
Cellular for the skies: exploiting mobile network infrastructure for low altitude air-to-ground communications
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented an overview of UAVs for civil applications focusing on the communication component and discussed the potential of mobile networks with their fully deployed infrastructures, wide radio coverage, high throughput, reduced latencies, and large availability of radio modems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Water Management for Sustainable Irrigation Systems Using Internet-of-Things.
TL;DR: A new way of managing water in irrigation systems is introduced, which can be applied to gardens or agricultural fields, replacing human intervention with Wireless Sensor Networks, which allows a better efficiency in the process of irrigation that can lead to savings for the end user.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Design of Communication and Control for Swarms of Aquatic Surface Drones
Anders Lyhne Christensen,Sancho Oliveira,Octavian Postolache,Maria João de Oliveira,Susana Sargento,Pedro Santana,Luís Nunes,Fernando J. Velez,Pedro Sebastiao,Vasco Costa,Miguel Duarte,Jorge Gomes,Tiago Rodrigues,Fernando Silva +13 more
TL;DR: The CORATAM and HANCAD projects are presented, which focus on the fundamental challenges related to communication and control in swarms of aquatic drones, and it is argued for the adoption of a heterogeneous approach to communication.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Capture of UAVs Through GPS Spoofing
TL;DR: This paper addresses the use of low-cost programmable Software Defined Radio (SDR) platforms for simulating a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal, more specifically Global Positioning System (GPS) signals, in order to transmit false signals and induce a location error on the targeted GPS receiver.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effective GPS Jamming Techniques for UAVs Using Low-Cost SDR Platforms
TL;DR: It was shown that the tested approaches are capable of stopping the reliable reception of the radionavigation signal in real-life scenarios, neutralizing the capacity for autonomous operation of the vehicle.
