Abstract

The article discusses the design features of a noise-resistant radio control channel for an unmanned ground-based robotic aircraft tanker, which is controlled remotely or programmatically. The presented radio channel allows you to transmit commands to the control systems of the car platform, a manipulator with a filling device at its end, as well as a fuel drainage system with high-pressure pumps. The robotization of airfield complexes is of high relevance, especially the robotization of general-purpose airfield equipment for refueling unmanned aerial vehicles. The purpose of the work is to determine the composition of the elements of the radio control system and calculate its main parameters. The article describes the classical system-wide and specialized methods of complex and structural analysis, functional synthesis of radio transmitters and receivers, radio engineering methods of noise-resistant coding, etc. The result of the work is to create a structural diagram of a radio link, calculate its main parameters, determine approaches for the practical implementation of the calculated values of the minimum and operating power of the transmitter, to determine the parameters of the required number of control channels; a common information and noise-resistant frame of the transmitted signal, to select an interference-resistant code and the preferred method of carrier frequency modulation by the information flow. The given calculated values and selected technical solutions can be successfully implemented by modern hardware, software and electronic components, which confirms the technical feasibility of the task of fully automating the facilities of the airfield technical complex. The field of practical application of the results obtained is much broader than the robotization of individual aircraft tankers - it is the radio control of various remote and software-controlled robotic systems and complexes, which allows either to completely exclude the operator from a highly dangerous technological process, or to provide him with the safest possible working conditions. Conclusions: the above–mentioned radio control system for an aircraft tanker is an integral part of a promising robotic system - a combined airfield, technical and fuel distribution complexes, ensuring their safety, functionality and efficiency in conditions of strong electromagnetic interference of natural and artificial origin.
