Application in UAV altimeter
1) Accurate weight of UAVs/Challenges in terrain following
Complex terrain is a major obstacle to UAV flight. And the precise height and terrain tracking can ensure a stable flight and the successful fulfillment of mission.
2) Difference between mmw radar altimeter and traditional altimeter

Typical application example-Altimeter in plant protection UAVs
Plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle can be remote controlled, to prevent spraying workers from exposure to pesticide, which could ensure the safety of spraying operations, and the efficient and fast operations save a lot of manpower and resources. Plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle is required to maintain a minimum fixed height of 1 ~ 2m from the crops, without restrictions on terrain and height. According to the terrain, it could automatically set the height, and avoid the obstacles automatically by adjusting the height.
NRA15 is an altimeter specially designed for plant protection UAVs. With its flexible installation position, it is suitable for all types of UAV platforms. It can accurately sense the height of UAVs and vegetation, and transmit the UAV data to UAV flight control system through UART serial port, to achieve and maintain the flight in the appropriate altitude to vegetation.
About Radar Working Principle
Radar sensors operate by transmitting low power electromagnetic energy. Any energy that strikes an objectreflects a certain amount of this energy back to the radar sensor.
If the returned energy is of sufficient magnitude, it is used to indicate object presence and determine the object's distance, angle, speed.
