The lightweight Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) flight operations are limited, especially in the UAV range or action radius and endurance, by the mission essential communication link capabilities. Presented paper addresses Design of a wireless communication system among small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles UAVs (Mini or Micro). The existing wireless communication system is designed to allow a UAV to securely send video footage and other information to its ground-based operator at the highest possible speed, even when it is out of direct range. As there are several functional subsystems in UAV, it is important to delimit the scope of the work. To create communication from UAV to UAV, and transmit data from one to another, a communication protocol and device are needed.
