Secure Communication Between Unmanned Aerial Vehicle and Ground Control Station

Abstract

The main purpose of this article is to provide data transfer by providing secure communication with drones, which is a kind of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). In our study, without intervening hardware and software of the drone (most of the drones do not allow interference with their hardware and software), a security layer is added for data communication. In our study for adding this layer, Wemos D1 Mini, having wireless network module and cheap, was used. In the scope of the study, Wi-Fi modules are customized and converted into Access Point and Client forms. The message sent to the specialized modules is provided through the Mobile Application, which has been designed and implemented for this study. Thus, commands were transmitted in an encrypted form in the wireless data transmission environment. As a result, this concept has become a prototype that can be customized according to any specific drone having Wi-Fi communication.
