Abstract: A method for optimized data transmission between an unmanned aerial vehicle and a telecommunications network includes: transmitting, by the unmanned aerial vehicle, command and control data and/or payload communication data in an uplink direction from the unmanned aerial vehicle to the telecommunications network; and/or receiving, by the unmanned aerial vehicle, command and control data and/or payload communication data in a downlink direction from the telecommunications network to the unmanned aerial vehicle. The unmanned aerial vehicle comprises a communication interface to transmit the command and control data and/or the payload communication data in the uplink direction and/or to receive the command and control data and/or the payload communication data in the downlink direction, wherein the communication interface comprises a first air interface towards an optimized cellular narrowband mobile network and a second air interface towards a cellular broadband mobile network.
