4.1.1.2 Radio Diversity
Atom UAV supports radio diversity by using two devices concurrently. This
facilitates achieving sufficient radio coverage in larger airframes with RF
shadowing, e.g., due to large carbon fiber bodies or battery assemblies. In such a
setup, both devices will emit the same ID (and thus be seen as one aircraft by
other receivers) while ignoring signals transmitted by each other.
Diversity can be configured on the web interface under “Configuration”, “FLARM”,
“Radio Diversity”. It requires defining a primary and a secondary device, where
the secondary is explicitly linked to the primary through a reference (part of the
serial number).
In normal operation, i.e., a device that is not as part of a primary/secondary setup,
choose the “No diversity” option. This is the default.
