Abstract

A model of an optical communication atmospheric channel on scattered radiation between the ground surface and an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is considered. Changes in the useful signal attenuation, the minimum energy per source pulse providing the stable link, and the maximum information transfer rate versus the optical and geometrical conditions of forming the communication channel are estimated. Based on the results, recommendations are formulated for the choice of optimal schemes of optical communication systems on scattered radiation with UAV.
