Architecture for Secure UAV Systems
Pages 99 - 102
Abstract
UAV applications are providing an extended range of services in society's needs. These applications require high execution speed and security to all transmitted data. In this paper an architecture is proposed for secure UAV applications. The architecture consists of a microcontroller to execute the flight controller tasks and a FPGA for implementing the security related tasks. The microcontroller is an Arduino which is widely used in UAVs. Arduino communicates with all sensors and generates outputs needed for controlling the UAV's motors. The circuit inside the FPGA encrypts/decrypts data related to transmission. Measurements taken concerning the execution time and power consumption, reveal the benefits of the extra hardware added for encryption/decryption in comparison with those of a single microcontroller.
