Abstract

This article presents a 2.2-km high-speed transceiver system for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) video streaming applications at a 39-GHz band. This proposed system includes transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) modules, which are developed from TX/RX chips and flip-chip mounted on an IC package substrate, a pair of high-gain active antennas, and software-defined radio (SDR) modules for data-to-image conversion. The TX provides an estimated effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) of 37 dBm from the measured RX spectrum. Active antennas of TX and RX provide up to 37- and 40-dB antenna gain, respectively. The presented flip-chip TX provides 11.6 dBm of saturated power (

$P_{\mathrm {sat}}$

) and 13 dB of conversion gain (CG), while the flip-chip RX delivers 18 dB of CG. The real-time video system’s characteristics have been demonstrated outdoors, marking the first video demonstration of a kilometer-scale long-range transmission at 39 GHz in UAV applications.

期刊介绍： The IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques focuses on that part of engineering and theory associated with microwave/millimeter-wave components, devices, circuits, and systems involving the generation, modulation, demodulation, control, transmission, and detection of microwave signals. This includes scientific, technical, and industrial, activities. Microwave theory and techniques relates to electromagnetic waves usually in the frequency region between a few MHz and a THz; other spectral regions and wave types are included within the scope of the Society whenever basic microwave theory and techniques can yield useful results. Generally, this occurs in the theory of wave propagation in structures with dimensions comparable to a wavelength, and in the related techniques for analysis and design.
