PROJECT DESCRIPTION
To make a telemetry system for a UAV, measure and transmit certain parameters such as air pressure, altitude, temperature, differential pressure, airspeed, global positioning data by GPS and wireless transmission of all the data to Ground Control Station which are displayed on a Graphical User Interface (GUI). Bixler2, a small Radio-Controlled plane has been used as a test bed.

TELEMETRY
The term telemetry refers to the automatic transmission and measurement of data from remote sources . to ground control station.
We have used 3DR 915 MHz radio telemetry kit for transferring all the onboard data
3DR kit utilizes the 915MHz frequency band and offers a range of approximately one mile with small Omni antennas, and range of several kilometers with high gain antennas. (100mW) and receiver sensitivity of -117dbm.
It provides a full duplex point to point link with transmit power up to 20dbm
Micro Air Vehicle Link (MAVLink) protocol framing and status reporting. Frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS), highly resistant to narrowband interference. Adaptive time division multiplexing (TDM) (CHECK) and support for LBT and AFA Configurable duty cycle. Support air data rates up to 250 Kbps and configurable duty cycle.
Microcontroller
High performance, low power AVR 8 bit microcontroller is used
for data acquisition, processing and communication with Ground Control Station.
Up to 16MIPS throughput at 16MHz. 16KB in-system programming flash, 1KB EEPROM and 512
bytes SRAM.
SENSOR BOARD
Sensor board contains all the necessary sensors and transducers for measuring atmospheric parameters and RC plane altitude and airspeed. Sensors used here includes:
Temperature Sensor
Analog sensor LM35 has been employed for measuring air
temperature, having a range of -55 C to +150 C.
Wireless data transmission over long distances. Bi directional communication between the UAV and ground station. Monitoring of the UAV from portable ground unit.
High precision low cost sensor board for measuring atmospheric and aircraft parameters.
