Data collection by autonomous mobile sensor arrays can be coupled with the use of drones
which provide a low-cost, easily deployable backhauling solution. These means of collection …

Data collection is the most important task in wireless sensor networks (WSN). Each sensor
node has to send the sensed data to a special node called sink, which is the user interface …

Data collection from deployed sensor networks can be with static sink, ground-based mobile
sink, or Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) based mobile aerial data collector. Considering the …

The benefits of using mobile sinks or data mules for data collection in Wireless Sensor
Network (WSN) have been studied in several works. However, most of them consider only …

Drones are frequently used for the delivery of materials or other goods, and to facilitate the
capture and transmission of data. Moreover, drone networks have gained significant interest …

We consider a wireless network using a drone as a sink node collecting data from sensor
nodes is considered. Since a drone is expected to cover the large area, the scheduling of …

In recent years, the technology of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have evolved quickly
leading to sensors with increased memory, storage, processing, and communication …

The recent technological evolution of drones along with the constantly growing maturity of its
commercialization, has led to the emergence of novel drone-based applications within the …
