Abstract
System and techniques for unmanned aerial vehicle navigation are described herein. A plurality of transmission beams may be established. Here, each beam in the plurality of transmission beams is a focused photonic propagation directed to a fixed geographic area and a travel route intersects the fixed geographic areas of the plurality of transmission beams. Cell entry may be received for a vehicle transceiver entering a geographic area for a transmission beam in the plurality of beams. Scrambling codes corresponding to the plurality of transmission beams may be provided to the vehicle. A course parameter, decodable by a scrambling code of the scrambling codes, may be transmitted to the vehicle via the plurality of transmission beams.
Claims24
A system for unmanned aerial vehicle navigation, the system comprising an eNodeB including:
- a transceiver to establish a plurality of transmission beams, each beam in the plurality of transmission beams comprising a focused photonic propagation directed to a fixed geographic area, a travel route intersecting the fixed geographic areas of the plurality of transmission beams;
- a decoder to receive cell entry for a vehicle transceiver entering a geographic area for a transmission beam in the plurality of beams;
- and
- an encoder to:
- provide scrambling codes corresponding to the plurality of transmission beams to the vehicle, each beam in the plurality of transmission beams having a different scrambling code;
- and
- transmit a course parameter to the vehicle via the plurality of transmission beams.
A method for unmanned aerial vehicle navigation, the method comprising:
- establishing a plurality of transmission beams, each beam in the plurality of transmission beams comprising a focused photonic propagation directed to a fixed geographic area, a travel route intersecting the fixed geographic areas of the plurality of transmission beams;
- receiving cell entry for a vehicle transceiver entering a geographic area for a transmission beam in the plurality of beams;
- providing scrambling codes corresponding to the plurality of transmission beams to the vehicle, each beam in the plurality of transmission beams having a different scrambling code;
- and
- transmitting a course parameter to the vehicle via the plurality of transmission beams.
At least one machine readable medium including instructions for unmanned aerial vehicle navigation, the instructions, when executed by a machine, cause the machine to:
