Joint Trajectory Control, Power Control, and Collection Schedule in UAV-Assisted Anti-Jamming Wireless Data Collection With Imperfect CSI

This letter presents a new approach to enhance the anti-jamming capability of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-assisted wireless data collection, specifically addressing the challenge of multi-jammers attacks in the context of imperfect channel state information (CSI). The proposed approach is designed for a scenario where a single UAV is responsible for collecting data from multiple ground sensors, while encountering multi-jammers from a ground-based adversary. The objective is to maximize the average data rate of all sensors while ensuring a sufficient amount of data is collected from each sensor. The optimization problem is formulated as a mixed-integer non-convex problem, and successive convex approximation(SCA) technique is employed, which jointly optimizes the collection schedule, power control and UAV trajectory. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the proposed approach outperforms in the presence of interference and imperfect CSI.
