Abstract
The use of drones or UAV for civilian applications are one of the topics of great interest in recent years. The application contexts are numerous and the mobile Internet access is becoming a key component in the design of such a systems and in their deployment in critical areas or emergency scenarios typically managed by the Department of Civil Protection. The possibility of measuring data through a set of sensors or taking video images with cameras on board the drone, making information available in real time in remote command and control positions, opens new horizons in terms of methodology and accuracy in the mobile data monitoring. The paper presents a first prototype of 'smart VPN bonding mechanism for drone communications' and the first tests have already confirmed the benefits of this innovative approach.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
