As the UAS industry evolves, the need for secure and reliable Command and Control (C2) communications has never been more critical. The landscape of UAS operations is shifting rapidly, offering both new challenges and opportunities.
Join us for an insightful webinar Wednesday, October 9, 2024 12:00 PM – 1:30 PM EDT where we will explore how recent rulings are reshaping UAS communications, and what they mean for your operations.
Key Takeaways:
- The Importance of Reliable C2 Communications: Why stable C2 links are essential for UAS safety, particularly for BVLOS and high-altitude long-endurance (HALE) flights.
- Understanding FAA Part 108 and FCC Part 88: The implications of these rulings for the UAS industry, and how they impact spectrum access and communication protocols.
- Multiple Frequency Solutions for Different Flight Phases: Explore how frequency allocation solutions can optimize communications for different aircraft and flight stages.
- Assured C-Band C2 for Large and Long-Range UAS: Learn how the assured C-band C2 communications are driving the next generation of larger aircraft and high-altitude operations.
- Compliance and Industry Standardization: What the new certification standards mean for UAS operators and how to prepare for compliance.
Who Should Attend:
- UAS operators and manufacturers
- Enterprise UAS users – delivery, inspection and energy
- Critical Infrastructure (CI) operators
- Aerospace engineers and technologists
- Aviation industry professionals
