Figure 9

Time series data. From top to bottom: line-of-sight distance between the deployable optical terminal and drone as calculated from GPS. Drone horizontal velocity, as calculated from GPS. Mount azimuth tracking rate, as calculated from mount (orange) and GPS (grey). Machine vision tracking errors in azimuth (orange) and altitude (blue). Received optical power from photodetector (blue) and DCO module (red). BER. Times of link dropout are delineated with a dotted line (\(t=318\) s and \(t=439\) s).
