“…Research suggests the use of an aerial thermal scanner and artificial-intelligence-enabled Internet-of-Things to safely capture human temperature over a safe distance [20]. Capturing thermal images using UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) is also gaining interest [21]. IoT-enabled applications and devices were also used in different studies.…”

“…For a special mission, the drone's onboard camera can be replaced with a thermal imaging camera [20]. The drone can also be equipped with a wireless video transmission system that can transmit real-time video and photos to operators on the ground [21], [22]. Some studies show that there are several methods to detect human temperature since thermal-based cameras or sensors are now widely available and affordable [23], [24].…”

In Indonesia, the COVID-19 pandemic has had an impact on a variety of sectors. Using all available technology for disaster mitigation is critical for pandemic prevention and control. Recent studies have uncovered the advantage of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) or drones, particularly those with rotary wings, in dealing with the pandemic. Much effort has been devoted to developing a rotary-wing drone system as a flying platform for aerial monitoring. However, several factors must be considered when visually observing a specific region, i.e., the area's size, topographic contours, locations of special interest inside the area, approach points to the area, and the observation timeframe. Since fever is a common symptom of COVID-19, human body temperature monitoring is highlighted for fever screening, with the objective of minimizing people with high body temperatures going to the crowd. A major challenge is creating a system that can provide accurate body temperature data, which is critical for fighting the pandemic. The purpose of this paper is to present a rotary wing drone application for aerial human body temperature measurements. The paper also proposed an alternative solution based on using a portable, low-cost, Forward-looking Infrared (FLIR) thermal imaging camera. The FLIR thermal camera is incorporated into the drone's electronic system. Furthermore, thermal image data are transmitted into the ground station via a radio telemetry transceiver to allow flexible surveillance by the operator. Indoor and outdoor experiments reveal that the system has been effectively installed and provide data collection for further research. The results show that the system can be used for small-scale area aerial monitoring.

“…The receiver sensitivity of UAVs can achieve −70 dBm ∼ −90 dBm[23]-[25]. Hence, in this paper, we take −85 dBm receiver sensitivity as an example to investigate our proposed IGA based UAV deployment and redeployment schemes.…”
