IEEE Std 1937.1:2020 pdf download.IEEE Standard Interface Requirements and Performance Characteristics of Payload Devices in Drones.
IEEE Std 1937.1 establishes a framework for drone interface to payload. It defines the interfaces, performance metrics, provisioning, operation control, and management for drone payload devices.
This standard specifies payload interface requirements for drones that have a maximum take-off mass (MT()M) less than 25 kg, the drones’ built-in payload not included.
1.2 Purpose
IEEE Std 1937. 1TM describes the general interface requirements and performance characteristics of payload devices in drones.
1.3 Word usage
The word shall indicates mandatory requirements strictly to be followed in order to conform to the standard and from which no deviation is permitted (shall equals is required to).
The word should indicates that among several possibilities one is recommended as particularly suitable, without mentioning or excluding others: or that a certain course of action is preferred but not necessarily required (should equals is recommended that).
The word i;iav is used to indicate a course of action permissible within the limits of the standard (niav equals is permitted to).
The word can is used for statements of possibility and capability, whether material, physical, or causal (can equals is able to)

3. Definitions, acronyms, and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. The IEEE Standards Dictionary
Online should be consulted for ternis not defined in this clause:
drones: Vehicles without human pilots aboard, operated remotely.
gimbal: The mechanical component installed on the drone to mount the payload.
NOTE—Generally, a gimbal can meet the three degrees of freedom of the payload: rotate around the X, Y, and Z axes, and each axis is equipped with a motor. It can also cooperate with the gyroscope to strengthen the power of the corresponding platform motor in the opposite direction when the drone tiks, so as to prevent the payload from “tilting” with the drone to avoid payload jitter.
infrared thermal imager: An imaging system mainly composed of a protective casing, optical system, optical scanning mechanism, photo detector, signal amplifier, and processor.
NOTE—The optical mechanical system is used to perform line scan detection on the infrared radiation of the target to be measured, and after receiving the conversion and signal processing by the photo detector, the infrared radiation of the target surface to be measured is converted into a device to obtain a quantitative temperature distribution image.
LiDAR: An optical remote-sensing technology that measures distance to a target by illuminating the target by laser light and measuring the reflected light with a sensor.
NOTE—Differences in laser return times and wavelengths can then be used to make a digital 3-D point representation of the target.IEEE Std 1937.1 pdf download.
