Challenges of data collection for monitoring technical characteristics and location of specialized airport vehicles

Abstract

The study analyzed the procurement of Boryspil Airport from open sources, as well as regulatory and legislative documents regarding data transmission via radio modems. It was found that over the past few years, the airport has been tendering for systems using GPRS cellular network operator networks (networks of third-party companies not controlled by airport services). The aim of this study is to calculate the parameters of the radio network, determine the data to be transmitted from sensors to the database, select radio modules to provide coverage of the airport's radio network area, create an architecture of a computer-integrated monitoring system for technical characteristics and location of specialized airport vehicles with the goal of transitioning from using networks of third-party companies to an independent internal network. The study calculated the parameters of the airport's radio network, analyzed the prospects for the development of the data transmission subsystem, additional possibilities for determining the location of special vehicles using radio modules and GPS. It considered reducing the impact of other unwanted sources of interference on the radio module's operating frequency, reducing the risk of data interception and decryption transmitted by the radio network, and choosing a radio module based on SX1280 for the development of a prototype for further research.
