Cooperative Routing Meets Swarm UAVs

Abstract

This project develops a novel and fundamental framework on which new enabling UAV swarm network communication technologies and routing protocols can be designed and analyzed: 1) focuses on random network coding (RNC)-based routing protocols for UAV swarm networks where RNC is utilized to improve the efficiency of the flooding-based routing in swarm UAV networks without relying on network topology information and routing path discovery.; 2) optimizes the RNC-based routing protocol with the aim of minimizing the transmission cost in the first hop; and 3) demonstrates the effectiveness of the introduced strategies using Extendable Mobile Ad Hoc Network Emulator (EMANE).
