“…HAPs can also distribute the recording of the orbital paths of satellites and monitor the probability of a collision between satellites [17]. Data transmission from a HAP involves the control of the HAP flight trajectory and the transmit power of the HAP antenna [18][19][20]. Recently, the deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) during natural disasters has become increasingly prevalent for forwarding information from the affected area to undamaged ground base stations during rescue operations [21].…”

The deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for free space optical communications is an attractive solution for forwarding the vital health information of victims from a flood-stricken area to neighboring ground base stations during rescue operations. A critical challenge to this is maintaining an acceptable signal quality between the ground base station and UAV-based free space optics relay. This is largely unattainable due to rapid UAV propeller and body movements, which result in fluctuations in the beam alignment and frequent link failures. To address this issue, linearly polarized Laguerre–Gaussian modes were leveraged for spatial mode diversity to prevent link failures over a 400 m link. Spatial mode diversity successfully improved the bit error rate by 38% to 55%. This was due to a 10% to 19% increase in the predominant mode power from spatial mode diversity. The time-varying channel matrix indicated the presence of nonlinear deterministic chaos. This opens up new possibilities for research on state-space reconstruction of the channel matrix.
