Sense-Store-Send: Trajectory Optimization for a Buffer-aided Internet of UAVs

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this letter, we study a buffer-aided Internet of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in which a UAV performs data sensing, stores the data, and sends it to the base station (BS) in cellular networks. To minimize the overall completion time for all the sensing tasks, we formulate a joint trajectory, sensing location, and sensing time optimization problem. To solve this NP-hard problem efficiently, we propose an iterative trajectory, sensing location and sensing time optimization (ITLTO) algorithm, and discuss the trade-off between sensing time and flying time. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively reduce the completion time for the sensing tasks.
