Abstract: This paper presents the development of a novel autonomous pod-tethered quadcopter drone system tailored for airport environments. Utilising the Aurrigo Auto-Pod (AAP), the multi-purpose system aims to securely tether a drone that transmits real-time data such as video imagery to the AAP, whilst at the same time supplies power to the drone. Through the development of a novel model-based design (MBD) approach, an analysis of the dynamical behaviour of the tethered system is undertaken. Simulation results demonstrate the potential benefits of using a tethered drone approach to enhance airport operational efficiency and safety. The study highlights the drone's control dynamics and operational constraints within a potential airport setting demonstrating the system's capability to operate under stringent aviation regulations.
