Abstract

In this paper, we present and numerically study an adaptive coding procedure for data transfer among quadrotors moving in a formation. The quadrotor’s parameters are identified using experimental data from a digital communication channel with limited bandwidth. We compare the obtained results with theoretical expectations and illustrate the efficiency of the adaptive coding procedure.
