Multi UAV Path Planning by 6G Non-Terrestrial Network

초록

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are a great way to achieve mobile communication where the communication infrastructure has been damaged by the natural disaster. Even though UAV can be employed in situations where existing mobile communication infrastructure is insufficient to offer their full range of services or not established yet. The development of the emergency communication network greatly benefits from the use of UAV networking communication, which is a component of the 6G air-space-ground integrated network system. Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) have been successfully integrated into 3GPP Rel. 17 and are most likely to have an even bigger role in 5G advance (5G-A) (up to Rel. 20) and 6G systems (beyond Rel. 20). We've outlined two path planning strategies for 5G-A and 6G NTN communications to find the shortest or most efficient route for UAVs while consuming the fewest number of resources and energy is the subject of UAV path planning.
