In this demonstration, we showcase the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) to assist 5G networks. One of the UAVs is equipped with OpenAirInterface (OAI) 5G radio modules and acts as a 5G relay to provide seamless connectivity to another UAV that functions as an aerial terminal user. The 5G aerial relay automatically positions itself to ensure a reliable connection to the second UAV. The second UAV is also controlled through a 5G connection from a central ground station, providing communication for monitoring and control beyond the line of sight.
