| Résumé | A complete system is designed to localize the avalanche victims through their smartphone radio transmission. The innovation takes advantage from the speed and medium altitude of a small UAV equipped with a monopulse antenna technique to find the direction of arrival of radio signals. A system model is developed to optimize search strategy duration and specify both the antenna array features (gain, beamwidth) and the UAV trajectory strategy. The different components such as the 2x2 patch array with circular polarization and the monopulse RF circuit are described and co-designed. The performance of 2D angular estimations are analyzed. © 2019 European Association on Antennas and Propagation. |
