Popis: | With a dramatic growth in the drone market in recent years, the amount of research efforts dedicated to drones increases correspondingly. However, short battery life severely restricts applications of the unmanned aerial vehicles and has proven to be a hard issue to tackle. Among various solutions for this problem, an automatic drone charging station can be utilized. This paper proposes a fully automatic charging station which operates wirelessly. The station also allows for imprecise landing of the UAV on the platform, which is often the case for practical systems. Application of the proposed charging station may completely eliminate the need in manual battery charging of the quadrotor UAVs. |
