Title: Systems, devices and methods for communicating data with unmanned aerial vehicles using underlay broadcast channel

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1805486

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and base station are disclosed that communicate within a first cell via schedule requests to set up transmission of up-link data. The UAV additionally communicates up-link data via a grant-free underlay broadcast channel to one or more neighboring base stations of the terrestrial cellular network. Transmitters, receivers, related methods are also disclosed for modulation and demodulation of the transmission packets.
