The paper presented provides theoretical findings of the critical solar UAV parameters required for prolonged flight. The parameters being, battery energy density, wing surface area, total UAV weight and solar surface area. The findings are based on two individual models, a solar and an aerodynamic model, which are combined to form a solar powered UAV model.
