20210255316 · 2021-08-19 · ·

It is prevented that a communication relay apparatus in an upper airspace, which is suitable for constructing a three-dimensional network, falls by a strong wind. A communication relay apparatus is provided with a relay communication station that performs a radio communication with a terminal apparatus, and is capable of flying in an upper airspace by an autonomous control or an external control. This communication relay apparatus includes a flight control section that controls a flight of the communication relay apparatus based on flight control information determined so as to reduce an influence of a strong wind generated around the communication relay apparatus. The flight control information may include information for controlling at least one of a flight direction, velocity, altitude, attitude, flight route and flight pattern of the communication relay apparatus.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DECELERATING AND REDIRECTING AN AIRBORNE PLATFORM
20210129999 · 2021-05-06 ·

The present invention provides a method for decelerating and redirecting an airborne platform, comprising the steps of retaining a flexible airfoil in non-deployed form in controllably releasable secured relation with each corresponding rotor arm of a multi-rotor drone; and upon detecting rate of descent of said drone in a first direction to be greater than a predetermined value, triggering release of one or more of said retained airfoils from said corresponding rotor arm and causing each of said released airfoils to be circumferentially displaced from a first rotor arm to a second rotor arm of said drone to occlude an adjacent inter-arm region, wherein each of said circumferentially displaced airfoils generates a sufficient value of localized lift that causes said descending drone to change its direction of descent from said first direction to a second direction.

PARADRONE
20210039780 · 2021-02-11 ·

A paradrone includes a canopy having a parafoil, a transverse canopy frame coupled to the parafoil to support the parafoil, a longitudinal canopy frame that is coupled to the parafoil while having a bent structure such that the parafoil generates a lift, and at least one parafoil connecting portion for connecting at least one canopy frame among the transverse canopy frame and the longitudinal canopy frame to the parafoil. The paradrone also includes a servomotor portion having a servomotor body and a servomotor arm for coupling and fixing intersecting parts of the transverse canopy frame and the longitudinal canopy frame. The servomotor arm is connected to a servomotor body and rotated in a predetermined direction by driving of the servomotor body to change the angle between the travelling direction of the paradrone fuselage and the transverse and longitudinal canopy frames, thereby changing the angle of attack.
