“…Moreover, if this single communication link is corrupted, the whole communication system will become paralyzed. Therefore, it is beneficial to collaborate with multiple UAVs in order to create a network, which has a capacity way beyond that of a single drone [2]. In this section, we mainly discuss the UAV networking technologies as well as relevant regulations.…”

Abstract-Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) have been widely used both in military and in civilian applications. However, the cooperation of small and mini drones in a network is capable of further improving both the performance and the coverage area of UAVs. Naturally, there are numerous new challenges to be solved before the wide-spread introduction of multi-UAV based heterogeneous Flying Ad Hoc Networks (FANET), including the formulation of a stable network structure. Meanwhile, an efficient gateway selection algorithm and management mechanism is required as well. On the other hand, the stability control of the hierarchical UAV network guarantees the efficient collaboration of the drones. In this article, we commence with surveying the FANET structure and its protocol architecture. Then, a variety of distributed gateway selection algorithms and cloudbased stability control mechanisms are addressed, complemented by a range of open challenges.Index Terms-Multi-UAV network system of small and mini drones, FANET network structure, distributed gateway selection algorithms, cloud-based stability control for collaboration and cooperation.

“…UAVs also prove significant when it comes to data gathering from inaccessible locations. One such case is autonomous networking where UAVs help with raising the problem of coverage, failures, limiting guidance and dead nodes by acting as supervisors [3]. Efficient and intelligent surveying is one of the key aspects of UAV networks.…”

Multi-Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) enabled Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) provide a wide range of applications, covering civilian and military expeditions along with geographical navigation, control, and reconnaissance. The coordinated networks formed between the UAVs and the WSNs help in enhancing the issues related to quality as well as coverage. The overall coverage issues result in starvation as an effect of long waiting time for the nodes, while forwarding the traffic. The coverage problem can be resolved by an intelligent choice of UAV way-points. Therefore, a specialized UAV mobility model is required which takes into account the topological structure as well as the importance of strategic locations to fix UAV way-points and decide the data transmission paradigm. To resolve this problem, a novel mobility model is proposed, which takes into account the attraction factor for setting up the way-points for UAV movements. The model is capable of deciding between the locations which result in more coverage, increased throughput with lesser number of UAVs employed, as justified by the simulation results and comparative evaluations.

Abstract-Because of high breeding density, the laminated henhouse with six overlap tiers cages microclimate has more influence to layers health and production performance. At present, the environmental measuring parameters and the measuring points are too less to reflect the whole henhouse environment. To solve this problem, we proposed an intelligent monitoring system and designed a kind of sensor distribution topology for henhouse complex structure. It can realize the real-time online environmental monitoring of the whole henhouse. The monitoring experiment was carried out in a henhouse in Hubei province. And the evaluation of the henhouse environment was scientifically analyzed. In fact, we find that his system runs stably, accurately and effectively, and has important practical significance and good application prospect in large-scale livestock precision farming.
