摘要
We investigate the area coverage and connectivity of an autonomous, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) network, whose goal is to monitor and sense a given area of interest in an efficient manner. To this end, we propose a connectivity-based mobility model that aims to sustain connectivity between the UAVs and the ground station. We compare coverage and connectivity performance of the proposed scheme with a coverage-based mobility scheme in several scenarios. Results illustrate the trade-off between achieving good spatial coverage and staying connected.
