Abstract

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) mounted Base Stations (UAV-BSs) have been widely used to enhance communication coverage for ground user devices (UDs) due to their intrinsic nature of flying. In this paper, we study the deployment of UAV-BSs for on-demand full communication coverage problem. Firstly, we give the scenario model together with communication model and coverage model. Secondly, we formulate full communication coverage problem considering network robustness and QoS provided. Thirdly, to address this problem, we propose two UAV deployment algorithms to minimize the number of UAVs while achieving on-demand full coverage. Particularly, these two UAV deployment algorithms only differ in building/updating service connections. Finally, simulation results demonstrate the efficiency of our proposed algorithms.

部署无人机基站，实现按需全通信覆盖

无人机(UAV)机载基站(UAV- bss)由于其固有的飞行特性而被广泛用于增强地面用户设备(UDs)的通信覆盖。在本文中，我们研究了针对按需全通信覆盖问题部署UAV-BSs。首先，给出了场景模型、通信模型和覆盖模型。其次，考虑网络的鲁棒性和提供的QoS，提出了全通信覆盖问题。第三，针对这一问题，提出了两种无人机部署算法，在实现按需全覆盖的同时，最大限度地减少无人机数量。特别是，这两种无人机部署算法仅在建立/更新服务连接方面有所不同。最后，仿真结果验证了所提算法的有效性。
