Abstract

This paper presents current research to extend the electronic systems of a UAV via a wireless link. Augmenting the onboard system with external resources offers a flexible testing environment and allows rapid prototyping of new hardware and software components that may not be adapted to meet the weight, space, and power restrictions of a small UAV. Additionally, keeping expensive prototypes on the ground lowers the risk of damage during experimentation. We are currently evaluating a number of hardware components and software techniques to wirelessly extend an onboard network.
