摘要

This systematic literature review explores Federated Learning (FL) within the context of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) applications. FL works by training a global model among clients, where the model is trained locally on each client, and only the model updates are shared. This approach maintains privacy and enables collaborative learning without sharing raw data. The collaborative efforts of multiple UAVs, however, introduce statistical heterogeneity in the collected sensing data due to variations in their respective monitoring areas. In this review, we analyze 31 papers published between 2016 and October 2023. Our review highlights the data properties, FL frameworks, applications, and evaluation methodologies used in these studies. We provide a detailed classification of the current state-of-the-art in FL, particularly focusing on approaches to manage statistical heterogeneity. This review also includes an assessment of the various evaluation methods used in the literature. This review offers a concise overview of the advancements made in addressing statistical heterogeneity in research studies. We will highlight key progress, identify persistent challenges, and explore future research directions. Ultimately, our goal is to provide insights into the ongoing developments in Federated Learning applications for UAV.
