Abstract (300 words maximum)
UAV-IoRT (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle—Internet of Remote Things) is Kennesaw State’s project for the 2024-2025 AFRL (Air Force Laboratory) Design Radio (SDR) Challenge. The goal of the project is to create a system designed to gather data from IoT devices in remote areas lacking access to the internet. Our approach employs UAVs to retrieve data from IoT clusters and relay it to a server to be uploaded to the cloud. Currently, we are working on key components of our system, including decoding a proprietary LoRa frame format, creating a MAC protocol, and implementing distributed transmit beamforming. Moving forward, we are transitioning from the design and development phase to the optimization and field testing phase, which focuses on improving performance.
