Analysis and countermeasure research on the power problems of unmanned aerial vehicles in alpine mountainous areas

High-altitude mountainous regions, characterized by low temperatures, reduced air pressure, and strong winds, pose considerable challenges to unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) power systems, with insufficient power representing a particularly critical concern. This study investigates the mechanisms by which high-altitude mountainous environments impact UAV power systems and delineates the adverse effects of power deficiencies on flight performance and mission execution. Based on this analysis, targeted solutions are proposed across multiple dimensions, including power system selection, maintenance strategies, enhancement of environmental adaptability, and optimization of flight operations, providing theoretical foundations and practical guidance for improving the power performance and operational reliability of UAVs in high-altitude mountainous conditions.
