Abstract

We perform experiments on the wireless communication between a drone flying at different heights and a commercial 5G base station. An Android-based tool deployed on a 5G test platform is used to record radio link parameters in the up- and downlink. In the downlink, measurements show a throughput of 600 Mbit/s on average with peaks above 700 Mbit/s. The uplink has a significantly lower throughput, comparable to 4G, with a few tens of Mbit/s.
