Survey and Analysis of Communication and Routing Mechanisms for UAVs in Wireless Sensor Networks
摘要
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly called drones, have seen much relevance in most disciplines because of their multiple uses such as in military operations, spying, monitoring the impact of climate change, and delivery. Emerging UAV communication technologies addressing the applications in next-generation wireless networks have been explored in this paper. Specifically, it investigates networking technologies that communicate successfully between UAVs, and routing strategies in UAV-assisted wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Networking and common communication technologies for UAV communication systems have been discussed in this survey paper. Drawing insights from recent academic and industrial literature, we have provided a comprehensive overview of UAV communication technologies, including IoT-enabled communication, ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC), navigation strategies, and advancements driven by machine learning and artificial intelligence.
