Abstract[English]
An electronic apparatus and method for retransmission of signals using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) is disclosed. The electronic apparatus includes a controller to control a movement of a UAV to a location within a signal coverage area associated with a remote transmitter. The electronic apparatus further includes receiver circuitry disposed on the UAV to receive a first signal from the remote transmitter. The first signal corresponds to a first wireless communication standard. The electronic apparatus further includes a signal processor to process the first signal to obtain a second signal and transmission circuitry to control one or more antennas disposed on the UAV to transmit a beam of the second signal to an electronic device that includes one or more receivers. The second signal corresponds to a second wireless communication standard which is same as or different from the first wireless communication standard.[French]
L'invention concerne un appareil électronique et un procédé de retransmission de signaux à l'aide de véhicules aériens sans pilote (UAV). L'appareil électronique comprend un dispositif de commande permettant de commander un déplacement d'un UAV jusqu'à un emplacement dans une zone de couverture de signal associée à un émetteur distant. L'appareil électronique comprend en outre de la circuiterie de récepteur disposée sur l'UAV pour recevoir un premier signal provenant de l'émetteur distant. Le premier signal correspond à une première norme de communication sans fil. L'appareil électronique comprend en outre un processeur de signal pour traiter le premier signal pour obtenir un deuxième signal et de la circuiterie de transmission pour commander une ou plusieurs antennes disposées sur l'UAV pour transmettre un faisceau du deuxième signal à un dispositif électronique qui comprend un ou plusieurs récepteurs. Le deuxième signal correspond à une deuxième norme de communication sans fil qui est identique ou différente de la première norme de communication sans fil.
