This invention provides an automated testing device for UAV data links, including an industrial control computer, a display, a
spectrum analyzer, a programmable DC power source, a programmable adjustable attenuator, a fixed attenuator I, a fixed attenuator II, a power divider I, a power divider II, an
RF switch, a shielded box I, and a shielded box II. The
software of the industrial control computer includes a
system management module and an automated testing module. The advantages of this invention are: it uses general-purpose
testing equipment, is based on a computer-automated program, and controls the settings of each testing device via a
bus to simulate
remote control,
telemetry, image
data transmission and reception, and
bit error rate statistics; it achieves automated testing of core functional performance indicators of UAV data links such as
power consumption, transmit power, spectrum, functionality,
receiver sensitivity,
bit error rate, and latency.
