Location Prediction and Trajectory Optimization in Multi-UAV Application Missions

Published in Intelligent Unmanned Air Vehicles Communications for Public Safety Networks, 2022

Unmanned aerial vehicles (a.k.a. drones) have a wide range of applications in e.g., aerial surveillance, mapping, imaging, monitoring, maritime operations, parcel delivery, and disaster response management. Their operations require reliable networking environments and location-based services in air-to-air links with co-operative drones, or air-to-ground links in concert with ground control stations.

Learning-based Multi-Drone Network Edge Orchestration for Video Analytics

Published in IEEE INFOCOM 2022 - IEEE Conference on Computer Communications, 2022

Unmanned aerial vehicles (a.k.a. drones) with high-resolution video cameras are useful for applications in e.g., public safety and smart farming. Inefficient configurations in drone video analytics applications due to edge network miscon-figurations can result in degraded video quality and inefficient resource utilization. Read more

Dronenet-sim: A learning-based trace simulation framework for control networking in drone video analytics

Published in Proceedings of the 6th ACM Workshop on Micro Aerial Vehicle Networks, Systems, and Applications, 2020

Realistic UAV testbed building for developing novel network control algorithms relating to video streaming/analytics is time-consuming and difficult. Challenges arise when executing high-scale drone video analytics experiments due to: constraints in drone manufacturing, government regulation restrictions, and limited energy resources. Read more

Design of trace-based NS-3 simulations for UAS video analytics with geospatial mobility

Published in Geospatial Informatics X, 2020

A common problem in UAS (a.k.a. drone systems) research and development is the cost related to deploying and running realistic testbeds. Due to the constraints in safe operation, handling limited energy resources, and government regulation restrictions, UAS testbed building is time-consuming and not easily configurable for high-scale experiments.
