Patent attributes
This application relates to a tamper-resistant datalink communications system. The system may include a ground-based communications module configured to be coupled to a radio controller configured to remotely control a drone comprising one or more actuators and a remote-mounted communications module configured to communicate data with the ground-based communications module. The ground-based communications module may include a ground processor configured to: receive a plurality of first signals modulated with a first modulation scheme from the radio controller, convert the plurality of first signals to a second signal modulated with a second modulation scheme different from the first modulation scheme, and generate a plurality of second duplicated signals comprising two or more duplicate signals of the second signal. The ground-based communications module may also include a plurality of ground transmitters configured to operate in different frequencies and respectively transmit the plurality of second duplicated signals to the remote-mounted communications module.
