Abstract

Radio link coverage mapping systems and related techniques are provided to improve the operation of unmanned mobile sensor or survey platforms. A radio or communication link coverage mapping system includes a logic device configured to communicate with a communication module and a position sensor coupled to a mobile platform, where the communication module is configured to establish a wireless communication link with a base station associated with the mobile platform and the position sensor is configured to provide a position of the mobile platform as it maneuvers within a survey area. The logic device determines communication link quality data associated with the wireless communication link as the mobile platform maneuvers within the survey area, receives corresponding position data, and generates corresponding communication coverage information, which may be used to generate a radio link coverage map.
