The drone will help save the lives of many people

Rescuers come almost every day to help people during natural disasters, fires and other emergencies. In the process of liquidation of victims they just need constant communication with each other and also with the control center. However, conventional Wi-Fi antenna have a range of about 100 meters, which was often very little for such situations. Therefore, researchers from the University of North Texas developed drone, equipped with a special Wi-Fi adapter that has a signal reception range is five kilometers.

To increase the signal transmission distance scientists have built the drone directional antenna. It gave the opportunity to use the wireless network Wi-Fi distance up to five kilometers. With all this, the researchers were able to maintain stability and to achieve its required quality.

Yang Wang, a researcher from the University of North Texas, as well as the head of the project said: "in order to enable communication between the rescue teams and control centers, we need to have a quality communication structure".
