Abstract

Covid-19 is a global crisis and the greatest challenge we have faced. It affects people in different ways. Most infected people develop a mild to moderate form of the disease and recover without hospitalization. This presents a problem in spreading the pandemic with unintentionally manner. Thus, this paper provides a new technique for COVID-19 monitoring remotely and in wide range. The system is based on satellite technology that provides a pivotal solution for wireless monitoring. This mission requires a data collection technique which can be based on drones' technology. Therefore, the main objective of our proposal is to develop a mission architecture around satellite technology in order to collect information in wide range, mostly, in areas suffer network coverage. A communication method was developed around a constellation of nanosatellites to cover Saudi Arabia region which is the area of interest in this paper. The new proposed architecture provided an efficient monitoring application discussing the gaps related to thermal imaging data. It reached 15.8 min as mean duration of visibility for the desired area. In total, the system can reach a coverage of 5.8 h/day, allowing to send about 21870 thermal images. © 2023 CRL Publishing.

基于纳米卫星星座的流行病监测系统研制

Covid-19是一场全球性危机，也是我们面临的最大挑战。它以不同的方式影响着人们。大多数感染者会发展成轻度至中度的疾病，无需住院即可康复。这就造成了以无意的方式传播大流行病的问题。为新型冠状病毒远程大范围监测提供了一种新技术。该系统基于卫星技术，为无线监控提供了关键的解决方案。这项任务需要一种基于无人机技术的数据收集技术。因此，我们建议的主要目标是围绕卫星技术发展一种任务架构，以便在大范围内收集信息，主要是在受网络覆盖的地区。围绕纳米卫星星座开发了一种覆盖沙特阿拉伯地区的通信方法，这是本文感兴趣的领域。新提出的架构提供了一个有效的监测应用程序，讨论与热成像数据相关的差距。期望区域的平均能见度达到15.8分钟。总的来说，该系统可以达到5.8小时/天的覆盖范围，允许发送大约21870张热图像。©2023 CRL Publishing。版权所有。
