DEVELOPMENT OF A GROUND-BASED CONTROLLED OFF-ROAD DRONE WITH RADIO CONTROL

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to develop a ground-based controlled off-road drone with radio control, which can work effectively on rough terrain. Methodology. For programming, a simplified version of C++ is used, development can be carried out both using the free Arduino IDE environment and using arbitrary C/C++ tools. For programming and communicating with a computer, you will need a USB cable, and for autonomous operation, you will need a 7.5-12V power supply 5.5*2.1mm connector. Practical importance is the rapid transmission of information: radio communication allows you to quickly transmit messages over long distances, in particular where other methods of communication may not be reliable enough or even impossible. Thanks to the use of radio waves, information is transmitted instantaneously, which is extremely important for the work of emergency services, coordination of operations or the provision of assistance in real time. Radio communication plays an important role in military communications, providing communication between units in the field, coordinating operations and transmitting commands in real time. The military uses special secure communication channels that can function in conditions of interference and attempts to jam the signal, which ensures the safety and effectiveness of military operations. Scientific novelty. The drone has its own encryption systems that are used for confidential communications. Regulators set obligations for telecom operators, which must ensure the protection of user data and ensure its inviolability in their networks. The relevance of the topic lies in the constant growth of demand for autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicles capable of performing tasks in difficult conditions. The proposed project is aimed at solving problems related to increasing the crosscountry ability and ease of control of ground drones Conclusions. The design of the structure, the selection of components, the creation of an electronic part, control software have been implemented. The results achieved demonstrate the possibility of using the developed drone to perform tasks in difficult weather conditions or in the field. Increased cross-country ability is provided by a well-thought-out chassis design and powerful drives, and ease of control is achieved thanks to an optimized radio communication system. The drone has its own encryption systems that are used for confidential communications.
