    摘要: The unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) tethered with an optical fiber is an unmanned aerial vehicle, drone or the like carrying an optical device which is tethered to an external light source. The light source may be a ground-based laser. The optical device is connected to, and optically coupled with, the light source by a tether including at least one optical fiber. A stabilizer may be mounted on the optical device for stabilizing orientation and direction thereof. The optical device may include at least one collimator and at least one focusing lens for shaping and focusing the received light for output to a selected target.
