Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is a remotely piloted or self-piloted aircraft that can carry cameras, sensors, communication equipment or other payloads. They commonly are used in military operations and scientific research, where their powerful intelligence collection capability greatly reduces human risk and operation cost. Their autonomous flight and powerful sensing capabilities further facilitate their operation beyond the visual range. UAVs can be controlled by Ground Station (GS) or Satellite Station (SS) to perform their missions [9, 16].
