Abstract :
Unmanned aerial vehicles, such as Multicopters, are becoming ubiquitous. One newer field is in electromagnetic (EM) metrology [1] [2]. For such applications the vehicles are relatively complex, housing multiple subsystems with associated wiring and metallic surfaces. The galvanically interconnected subsystems have bearing on the on-board antennas and therefore the integrity of measurements.
