Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle antennas, and in particular to a high-efficiency 868Mhz-915Mhz unmanned aerial vehicle antenna. Background Art
[0002] Drones are a type of radio-controlled device that has emerged in recent years and are widely used in film and television shooting, aerial photography, surveying and mapping. The images taken by drones are transmitted to the receiving device via wireless communication, greatly saving the time and workload required for shooting.
[0003] With the development of drone technology, the requirements for drone signal receiving and sending capabilities are getting higher and higher. In order to obtain clearer images and expand the range of drone activities, more and higher requirements are put forward for drone antennas. Antennas are important components in drones and are used for wireless communication between the main circuit of the drone and external devices to achieve functions such as image transmission between drone equipment and external devices.
[0004] Due to the limitation of the maximum distance of signal transmission between the drone and external equipment, when the target to be photographed by the drone is beyond the communication range, the operator needs to move closer to the target. When the operator cannot approach the target, the drone cannot be used. Therefore, an antenna is needed to increase the communication range between the drone and external equipment and improve the coverage of the drone's activity area. Utility Model Content
