The term Internet of Things (IoT) has emerged in recent decades because this network revolutionizes almost every aspect of our daily life, including products such as smartphones and intelligent vehicles, and crucial tasks such as precision agriculture and environmental monitoring. Myriads of communication technologies have been developed to fulfill the two main features of the IoT: long-range transmissions and low power consumption. Long-range (LoRa) has become one of the vital parts of IoT communication. In this study, the real-time deployments of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-based LoRa communication network are systematically reviewed, with a focus on the communication setup and its reported performance. Importantly, the UAV-based LoRa communication network has a low bit rate connectivity to ensure the high reliability of connections, especially in applications that require long transmission ranges. This study provides recommendations for researchers on what research perspectives need to be explored when implementing UAVs for IoT-based LoRa communication. This study also describes publication trends related to UAV-based LoRa communication networks. A supplementary Excel file that contains the reported publications on UAV-based LoRa communication networks is included to show this publication trend.

“…For example, [52] discussed the layout of the aerial emergency ad-hoc network (EANET) for both ad-hoc on demand distance vector (AODV) and zone routing protocol (ZRP), eventually promoting the latter since it generally leads to a higher packed delivery fraction (i.e., the ratio between the number of packets generated at the source and the number of packets received at the destination). Furthermore, the study in [53] suggested a UAV-DTN based on a decentralized near-cloud infrastructure with LoRa technology to provide low-power transmission for long distances. The authors investigated the performances of the network (i.e., long-range detection/messaging and detection under rubble) in both inside and outside environments, in order to comprehensively test the proposed technology.…”

The number of disasters has increased over the past decade where these calamities significantly affect the functionality of communication networks. In the context of 6G, airborne and spaceborne networks offer hope in disaster recovery to serve the underserved and to be resilient in calamities. Therefore, this paper surveys the state-of-the-art literature on post-disaster wireless communication networks and provides insights for the future establishment of such networks. In particular, we first give an overview of the works investigating the general procedures and strategies for counteracting any large-scale disasters. Then, we present the possible technological solutions for post-disaster communications, such as the recovery of the terrestrial infrastructure, installing aerial networks, and using spaceborne networks.Afterward, we shed light on the technological aspects of post-disaster networks, primarily the physical and networking issues. We present the literature on channel modeling, coverage and capacity, radio resource management, localization, and energy efficiency in the physical layer and discuss the integrated space-air-ground architectures, routing, delay-tolerant/software-defined networks, and edge computing in the networking layer. This paper also presents interesting simulation results which can provide practical guidelines about the deployment of ad hoc network architectures in emergency scenarios. Finally, we present several promising research directions, namely backhauling, placement optimization of aerial base stations, and the mobility-related aspects that come into play when deploying aerial networks, such as planning their trajectories and the consequent handovers.Maurilio Matracia and Mohamed-Slim Alouini are with the Computer, Electrical, and Mathematical Sciences and Engineering

Disaster struck does not announce itself and people usually caught with the ad hoc situation. Disaster is divided into two types which are natural disasters and man-made disasters. Natural disasters happen because of a natural phenomenon or process such as earthquakes, tsunamis, typhoons and others. Manmade disasters happen as a consequence of technological or human hazards such train accident, traffic collision, aviation incident (plane crash), structural collapse and others. Such disaster struck events may cause fixed network infrastructure to be partially or fully-destroyed. *Author for correspondenceThe deployment of the fixed network infrastructure will be almost impossible to be re-established and recovered within a short time, especially in remote area where one had never existed.During the disaster struck, two entities would be existed which are victims and rescue teams like firefighters, police, volunteers and medical teams. The communication network is vital, especially after the disaster struck as the rescue teams need to coordinate the Search and Rescue (SAR) operations and mission critical. The real-life situation can remain unknown to the rescue teams involved in the SAR operations or it can be totally different from what it was before the disaster due to the damages. Subsequently, the exchange of data on the latest condition at the disaster area plays a big part and is crucial to save lives and
