Özet

This demonstration presents a software-defined radio (SDR) testbed for experimentally evaluating air-to-ground (A2G) communication under dynamic flight conditions. By synchronizing UAV telemetry with orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) measurements, the system enables precise frame-to-telemetry alignment and frame-level bit error rate (BER) analysis. Results show that yaw angle is the dominant flight parameter affecting link reliability. Building on this finding, we demonstrate a yaw-aware adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) scheme that maps angular conditions to the optimum modulation selection. The proposed framework provides a reproducible and practical platform for flight-parameter-aware link adaptation, advancing the robustness and efficiency of future UAV communication systems.
