In this section, we present a payload design process for small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). We detail several payload design principles to overcome various constraints imposed by the stringent weight, power, and space requirements of small UAVs. Throughout the section, we demonstrate the efficacy of these principles with an example payload for a fixed wing small UAV used by the Academy Center for UAS Research at the US Air Force Academy. In this example application, a UAV is to be used to autonomously search, detect, localize, and track a ground target. The system requirements generated by this example application are closely related to those for other small UA V applications.
