The Influence of Ultrashort Electromagnetic Pulses on Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Control Systems

Abstract

The development of technologies for the development and use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) for military purposes is especially notable. Modern UAV are used as one of the most important means increasing combat capabilities of the Armed Forces. Their combat use is desirable when performing tasks characterized by a long flight duration, increased danger and complexity. The use of UAV to ensure the safety of civilian objects and critical infrastructure facilities is also highlighted, forcing more attention to be paid to new methods of monitoring and monitoring the earth's surface. The analysis showed that there are potential threats of the emergence news power electromagnetic means of influence on unmanned aerial vehicles using ultrashort electromagnetic pulses. The article analyzes the characteristics of existing means generating ultrashort electromagnetic pulses and the trivial characteristics of aviation data exchange protocols. The necessity of testing telecommunication control systems for unmanned aerial vehicles based on the influence of ultrashort electromagnetic pulses is shown, and the experimental method is the most promising method for assessing their impact.
