A laboratory bench for modeling the UAV transceiver equipment is proposed. The bench is based on SDR technology and is designed to organize the interaction of elements of a network-oriented radio communication system with UAVs. The radio system of the UAV complex was analyzed, and conclusions were drawn about the division of the system's networks into a transport network, an access network, and an aircraft network. A topology was selected for each type of network. The combined use of the Pluto Plus SDR transceiver and GNU Radio is a powerful modern platform for both testing technical solutions and solving complex problems in the development and research of network-oriented radio communication systems. The availability of open-source software and documentation from the developers simplifies the process of configuring and using the platform. The ability to develop custom software components (blocks) of GNU Radio allows to expand the application of the platform for the organization of the bench of development and testing of radio communication systems (SDR bench) and use it for training specialists in the field of programmable radio electronics in specialties of higher education and advanced training. The proposed option of building an SDR bench provides the solution of various tasks with the possibility of flexible configuration and scaling.
