Two-way charging of solar-powered containers for drone stations

4 FAQs about [Two-way charging of solar-powered containers for drone stations]

Are UAVs fully charged when they leave the charging station?

UAVs are assumed fully charged when they leave the charging station (SoC=100%). The UAV''s flight range is estimated according to the UAV 3D minimal energy trajectory model. As the energy consumption rate varies for loaded and unloaded UAVs, two different flight scenarios are implemented.

Are UAVs a good choice for Island photovoltaic charging stations?

Dang et al. (2021) propose a multi-criteria decision-making framework for island photovoltaic charging station site selection. While literature is abundant on ground vehicles and ships, UAVs have had less share of this focus. Compared to ground vehicles, the average UAV range is 3 km, which is significantly lower.

How much power does a UAV use per charge stop?

Under this strategy, UAV charging power levels per charge stop vary greatly, 0.03–0.15 kW per vehicle, depending on the trajectory and SoC, but are still in line with that of current off-shelf UAV technology. Fig. 7.

Are UAV charging stations based on 2D routing or ESP?

All research on UAV charging allocation and planning depended on 2D routing or ESP, which yields non-practical results (ElSayed and Mohamed, 2020b). There is a literature gap in addressing the precise estimate of UAV operational energy based on real-life trajectories to inform charging station allocation.
