Reconfigurable airway signaling system

Abstract

Provided are an airway setting device for signaling an airway to an aerial vehicle and an automatic navigation system for controlling the aerial vehicle to fly the airway. The airway setting device transmits radio frequency (RF) signals through two antennas spaced apart from each other. The transmitted RF signals are encoded with phase difference information intended for an aerial vehicle receiving the transmitted RF signals. An automatic navigation system of the aerial vehicle receives the RF signals from the two antennas spaced apart from each other, measures a phase difference between the RF signals, decodes encoded phase difference information, and compares the measured phase difference with the decoded phase difference to identify and maintain an airway.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
