“…As a result, the cooperation in an ad hoc fashion between several UAVs to form a flying ad hoc network (FANET) is becoming widely applicable, since most of the UAV applications require more flexibility and versatility in order to be easily deployed. Nevertheless, FANETs face numerous challenges, such as the frequent topology changes in a 3D space due to the high‐speed ranges of UAVs resulting in unstable communications between them (ie, communicating UAVs stay in range for a short period of time) . Another challenging issue is that the lifetime of FANETs is strongly related to the energy constraints imposed by the weight, size, and power consumption of UAVs .…”

Summary Much progress can be expected in the domain of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communication by the next decade. The cooperation between multiple UAVs in the air exchanging data among themselves can naturally form a flying ad hoc network (FANET). Such networks can be the key support to accomplish several kinds of missions while providing the required assistance to terrestrial networks. However, they are confronted with many challenges and difficulties, which are due to the high mobility of UAVs, the frequent packet losses, and the weak links between UAVs, all affecting the reliability of the data delivery. Furthermore, the unbalanced energy consumption may result in earlier UAV failure and consequently accelerate the decrease of the network lifetime, thus disrupting the overall network. This paper supports the use of the movement information and the residual energy level of each UAV to guarantee a high level of communication stability while predicting a sudden link breakage prior to its occurrence. A robust route discovery process is used to explore routing paths where the balanced energy consumption, the link breakage prediction, and the connectivity degree of the discovered paths are all considered. The performance of the scheme is evaluated through a series of simulations. The outcomes demonstrate the benefits of the proposed scheme in terms of increasing the lifetime of the network, minimizing the number of path failures, and decreasing the packet losses.

“…Certainly, the special mobility of UAV will cause dynamic connectivity issue (e.g. connection break [38], delay jitter [39] [40]), thereby severely influence the property of ABN, especially routing protocol [14][15][16]. Therefore, the realistic aerial mobility model (AMM) should be developed [17].…”

For search and rescue (SAR), the dynamic connectivity issue caused by mobility of aerial node will severely influence the actual performance in aerial backbone network (ABN). To capture true aerial mobility feature, some application-oriented aerial mobility model (AMM) has been developed. However, existing 3D AMM cannot satisfy some specific demands for in SAR, especially smooth 3D trajectory and rapid connectivity coverage. In this paper, we propose authentic 3D mobility model based on spiral line (3D SLMM), such as Z-Or-SLMM and Z-Non-SLMM. Firstly, we review the basic concept of 2D SLMM. Then, we develop authentic 3D SLMM based on 2D SLMM. Meanwhile, we validate synthetic trajectory of 3D SLMM through the real traces. In the further, we investigate some mathematical features of 3D SLMM, such as mathematical expression and the distribution of spatial nodes. Finally, we evaluate some key mobility property of 3D SLMM. The result shows that Z-Or-SLMM and Z-Non-SLMM all have specific mathematical expression and uniform distribution of spatial nodes at steady status. Besides, the Z-Or-SLMM and Z-Non-SLMM all possess authentic and smooth 3D trajectory. Specially, the aerial node in Z-Or-SLMM merely takes 1.5 minutes to cover 100% target region of 200m*200m. We believe that the 3D SLMM can be directly deployed in the actual scene, and provide many helpful and credible guidelines in the design and analysis of realistic ABN.

“…In this case, the only drawback is the massive packet latency due to the discovery of the multiple routes at a time. A Comparison of Stateless Position-based Packet Routing Algorithms for FANETs [19] has also been proposed, where the node can be identified by its location, rather than based on its address, and the data packets get forwarded based on their coordinates.…”

Flying Ad-Hoc networks (FANET) are the extended paradigm of the mobile Ad-Hoc networks and, perhaps, one of the most emerging research domains in the current era. A huge number of tangible applications have been developed in this domain. The main advantages of such networks are their easy deployment, scalability, and robustness. However, the sparseness of these networks is an inherent characteristic that is known to be a bottleneck. The main objective of this work was to provide an alternative solution for the intermittently connected FANET by considering the philosophy of the Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) approach. To realize the functionality of the DTN protocols in a threedimensional (3D) space, a social FANET model is proposed. FANET nodes are supposed to have a sparse node density. Fundamentally, the proposed DTN assisted Flying Ad-hoc Network exploits the DTN routing and mobility features. The new mobility modeling for 3D spaces was re-engineered and tested with well-known routing protocols to analyze the performance of the model based on node speed, density, buffer, latency, message overhead, and power consumption. The effectiveness of 3D mobility models has also been compared against the one of classical models. The obtained results reflect a significant enhanced performance of the suggested DTN protocol for sparse FANET in a social scenario.
