| 3 | 1 | AUGER, Anne sophie | For the design of radio systems with no license dedicated to data transmission, special authorized frequency bands exists and lead to simple et efficient solution. These bands are précised in the ANNEX 7 of the TNRBF, which specifies the free bands dedicated to low range and power equipment. In particular, the section for non-specific equipment is particularly adapted for TM/TC activities, data and video transmission (c.f. [[ANNEX I]] ). |

| 5 | 1 | AUGER, Anne sophie | Considering the high range required for the link (minimum 50km), there are two suitable bands with different characteristics: |
| 6 | 1 | AUGER, Anne sophie | |
| 7 | 1 | AUGER, Anne sophie | * 868,7-869,2 MHz offers a 500 kHz bandwidth and ERP=25 mW leading to EIRP=41 mW |
| 8 | 1 | AUGER, Anne sophie | * 869,4-869,65 MHz offers a 250 kHz bandwidth and ERP=500 mW leading to EIRP=820 mW |

| 20 | 1 | AUGER, Anne sophie | Considering our application, the 500 mW ERP band seems to be better adapted, but there is a trade off to make with the bandwidth available, especially for the video transmission that requires large bandwidth. |

| 25 | 1 | AUGER, Anne sophie | Although it appears to be the fastest and easiest way to define the frequency range of a system, the use of a free band is risky for the user. Indeed, there are no guaranties of non-jamming for users of license-free radio systems. In our case, a permanent link should be maintained between the aircraft and the ground station, considering that the aircraft will fly around the city of Toulouse and transmit uniformly to a region of more than 100km all around its antenna. We cannot allow that telecommand data don’t reach the aircraft, or that ground station loose the telemetry information of the plane: the solution is to send a frequency allocation request to the ANFR. |
