Patent number: 11943041Abstract: Dynamic shielding of cellular signals for an antenna of an unmanned aerial vehicle is disclosed. An example method may include receiving a navigation route for an unmanned aerial vehicle to execute during flight of the unmanned aerial vehicle and determining an orientation of a radio signal shield for an antenna of the unmanned aerial vehicle using ground level signal propagation information of radio signals for a network and the navigation route, wherein the radio signal shield prevents the radio signals from being received by the antenna from directions based on the orientation. The method may further include adjusting the radio signal shield using the orientation and communicating with a cellular base station of the network using the antenna.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: AT&T INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY I, L.P.Inventors: Mario Kosseifi, Joseph Thomas, Giuseppe De Rosa

Patent number: 11923957Abstract: Maintaining network connectivity of aerial devices during unmanned flight is facilitated. An example method may include providing, to an access point of a radio access network (RAN) during flight of the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) on a flight route, channel allocation instructions for connecting the UAV to the radio access network via communication channels. The method may further include detecting an interference event associated with a portion of the flight route of the UAV during the flight. The method may further include adjusting, during the flight, the channel allocation instructions in response to detecting the interference event. The method may further include providing the adjusted channel allocation instructions to an access point of the radio access network during the flight.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignees: HYUNDAI MOTOR COMPANY, KIA CORPORATIONInventors: Giuseppe De Rosa, Mario Kosseifi, Ronald Kiefer
