Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Airborne base stations (ABSs) attracts much attention as one of the means to recover the wireless communication infrastructure when a large-scale natural disaster occurs. In this paper, we investigate photovoltaic power converters (PPCs), which convert optical power into electrical power in power-over-fiber (PWoF) drones for ABSs in terms of P-V characteristics, weight, and dimensions. Based on the supply power per weight of the PPCs and the maximum take-off weight of drones, it is found that GaAs-based PPC is more suitable for using PWoF drones. Moreover, we show the relationship between the take-off weight of drones and the required power supply for practical use as ABSs.
