Abstract

The majority of commercial heavy-lift Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is equipped with carbon fiber propellers. This paper analyzes the impact of such conductive rotating parts on UAV-based antenna measurements in the VHF band. The simulated results show a significant increase of both measurement noise and systematics.
