Short summary
With the availability of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) such as octocopters a new versatile platform for signal-in-space measurements is deployable. This paper describes concept and design of an octocopter and its instrumentation, being used to investigate the possible interaction of terrestrial navigation systems such as DVORs and radars with single wind turbines (WT) or wind power plants.
