Problem Solving Methods for Ensuring Safety of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

The paper focuses on a problem solving method for ensuring the safe flight of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) carrying a tool set applied for a number of scientific studies. In order to prevent collisions between carriers, every UAV is equipped with an electromagnetic transmitter with the radiation pattern of 4π and a detector for its identification. This equipment with embedded specialized software is expected to prevent crash situations
