Innovative drone-based technologies provide novel techniques to guarantee the safety and
quality of power supply and to perform these tasks more efficiently. Electric multirotor drones …

Drone autonomous operations near power lines are growing steadily and require innovative
techniques to keep them on air. This paper presents a novel electromechanical recharging …

In recent years, the use of UAV images to monitor power transmission lines has become a
popular method. However, the low quality of these images can present challenges for …

Drone grasping on power lines for recharging is challenging since it requires the gripper to
be lightweight, carried by a drone, and efficient for a firm grasp. A deep understanding of the …

Unmanned aerial systems/vehicles (UAS/UAVs) are widely employed for inspecting high-
voltage (HV) Tx lines, characterized by elevated electric (E) and magnetic (H) fields …

We present a fully autonomous self-recharging drone system capable of long-duration
sustained operations near powerlines. The drone is equipped with a robust onboard …

It is known that new power transmission line inspection techniques have been developed
over the last few years with great potential to improve and, in some cases, even replace …

This study involves the design of a hybrid excitation self-contained power supply using the
finite element analysis software Maxwell 3D for model construction; considering the hybrid …

Repeated reports of power lines or power-line equipment interfering with GPS and
telecommunications devices require the phenomenon to be investigated further. In this …

L'objectiu d'aquest projecte és qüestionar si les regulacions que actualment s' estan aplicant
als vehicles aeris no tripulats (o UAV de l'anglès “" Unmanned Aerial Vehicle"”) en relació …
