Claim 0:
1. A method of determining a flight path for an aerial vehicle, comprising:
controlling the aerial vehicle to fly along a first route;
identifying, during the flight along the first route and with aid of one or more processors, a change in a state of signal transmission occurring at a first location, the change of the state of signal transmission indicating an abnormal state in a signal transmission between the aerial vehicle and a control device;
in response to identifying the change, determining, by the one or more processors, a second location different from the first location;
determining a second route to the second location;
controlling, by the one or more processors, the aerial vehicle to fly to and land at the second location; and
in response to determining that the signal transmission between the aerial vehicle and the control device at the second location is changed from the abnormal state to a normal state, determining a third route, determining the third route including at least one of:
determining the third route to return to the first route;
determining the third route to a starting point of the aerial vehicle;
determining the third route based on a command from a user;
determining the third route to include a location undetected by a sensor of the aerial vehicle during a previous flight; or
determining the third route to a service point providing one or more services to restore a normal operational status.
