Abstract Flying Ad Hoc Networks (FANETs) are composed of a set of high mobility flying
nodes, such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), connected in an ad-hoc manner and …

The deployment of an unmanned aerial network (UAV-network) for the optimal coverage of
ground nodes is an NP-hard problem. This work focuses on the application of a multi-layout …

Flying ad hoc networks (FANETs) that consist of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)
are promising technologies for future networked systems due to the versatility of UAVs. One …

Abstract Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) empower people to reach endangered areas
under emergency situations. By collaborating with each other, multiple UAVs forming a UAV …

In recent years, the emergence of flying ad hoc networks (FANETs) with multiple unmanned
aerial vehicles (UAVs) has made it possible to effectively perform not only the far-off …

In this paper, we consider a network reconstruction problem using unmanned aerial vehicles
(UAVs) where stationary ad hoc networks are severely damaged in a post-disaster scenario …

Approaches that aim to maintain the connectivity of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or
drones either utilize cellular networks or propose to jointly optimize connectivity needs with …

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are now frequently used to collect all necessary sensory
data for decision-making. As a result, it is common for the sensor and sink nodes to …

The placement of wireless mesh routers is a significant matter in enhancing the performance
of a wireless mesh network. Therefore, it is essential that the mesh routers are optimally …
