1
Tethered drones as tactical communication relays
Tethered drones offer extended communication range, improved line-of-sight and can be rapidly deployed for tactical operations.
2
Reducing ground clutter effects
By placing the antenna at a higher elevation, it reduces the chance of signal interference caused by ground-based obstacles such as buildings, vegetation, or uneven terrain.
3
Tethered drones vs other equipment
Key differences between tethered drones and other equipment such as aerostats resides in the flexibility, weather tolerance, and intelligence of the tethered UAS.
