Does the aerial robot have to transmit to a station at 100m, or will our motherships receiving station be just outside the arena?
Just outside the arena. You must show that your system COULD reach the mothership had we put it at maximum range. Due to the fact that we are doing this indoors, we probably won’t have a clear 100m beyond the arena to place the mothership (base station) receiver, so your team will have to show the Judges that based on your transmitter’s ERP, you could go that far… in fact, we could set up a test range that is 100m outside to verify this, but the plan was to have you demonstrate it analytically.
