FLIGHT SYSTEM WITH INFRARED CAMERA AND COMMUNICATION METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. A flight system of an infrared camera including an infrared camera mounted on an aircraft, the system also comprising:
- a signal collection and process unit provided on the infrared camera for obtaining image signals by capturing infrared images of a monitored object and transforming the image signals into communication signals;
a communication signal transmission unit for receiving the communication signals coming from the signal collection and process unit and emitting the received communication signals out via a communication channel, and receiving communication signals from outside to be transmitted to the infrared camera; and
an on-board satellite communication apparatus for emitting the communication signals coming from the communication signal transmission unit to a communication satellite through a satellite antenna, and receiving communication signals coming from the communication satellite to be transmitted to the communication signal transmission unit.

Abstract
A flight system of an infrared camera and its communication method are disclosed. The system includes an infrared camera mounted on an aircraft. The system may also include: a signal collection and process unit provided on the infrared camera for obtaining infrared image signals of a monitored object and transforming the image signals into communication signals; a communication signal transmission unit for receiving the communication signals from the signal collection and process unit, emitting the received communication signals via a communication channel, and receiving communication signals to transmit to the infrared camera; and an on-board satellite communication apparatus for emitting the communication signals to a satellite, and receiving communication signals coming from the satellite to be transmitted to the communication signal transmission unit. The system can be connected to a satellite, ground base station or ground network, and server of a ground control center, through an on-board satellite communication apparatus.
