摘要: The use of micro unmanned aerial vehicles (MUAVs), also known as drones, has gained much popularity for various military, public, and civil applications. Thanks to their mobility and flexibility, remote controlled and automated MUAVs allow the accomplishment of different tasks without the need of direct human intervention. Recent advances in electronics and sensing technologies have broadened the scope of MUAV applications. Such applications include traffic monitoring, border surveillance, disaster management, public safety, and environmental services. These lightweight drones can be equipped with communication systems allowing them to interact with other ground and/or flying nodes. Due to their flexible three-dimensional (3D) positioning, they have the potential to have reliable wireless communications with reduced path loss effect. This talk will cover potentials, challenges, and some recent progress of MUAV-assisted wireless communications.
