Abstract

The recent advancement of smart UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) allows its applicability to wide-range fields covering time-critical reports, emergent item delivery, virtual emotion services and so on. In particular, the surveillance can be supported by a fleet of smart UAVs in cooperation with various system components including sensors, mobile robots, autonomous vehicles and so on. Additionally, it is crucial to consider the reconfigurable capabilities of smart UAVs leveraging for rapid movement in disregarded airspace. In this paper, we introduce a reconfigurable UAV-enabled 3D sustainable surveillance in classified air-spaces to provide energy-efficient monitoring and security surveillance enforcement. We formally define a problem to maximize the reconfigurable UAV-aided sustainable surveillance efficiency with optimal height in 3D classified air-spaces avoiding excessive resource consumption and waste. To solve this issue, two different schemes of Lined-Up and Zig-Zag are proposed. Furthermore, we analyze their performances based on the gained numerical results through expanded simulations with detailed discussions.

可重新配置的无人机辅助三维可持续监控分类空域

智能无人机（UAVs）的最新进展使其能够广泛应用于时间紧迫的报告、紧急物品运送、虚拟情感服务等领域。特别是，智能无人机可以与传感器、移动机器人、自动驾驶汽车等各种系统组件合作，为监控提供支持。此外，至关重要的是要考虑智能无人机的可重构能力，以便在不受关注的空域中快速移动。在本文中，我们介绍了一种可重构的无人机三维可持续监控分类空域，以提供高能效的监控和安全监控执行。我们正式定义了一个问题，即在三维分类空域中以最佳高度最大化可重构无人机辅助的可持续监控效率，避免过度的资源消耗和浪费。为了解决这个问题，我们提出了两种不同的方案："一字排开 "和 "之 "字形。此外，我们还通过扩展模拟和详细讨论，根据获得的数值结果分析了它们的性能。

期刊介绍： Vehicular communications is a growing area of communications between vehicles and including roadside communication infrastructure. Advances in wireless communications are making possible sharing of information through real time communications between vehicles and infrastructure. This has led to applications to increase safety of vehicles and communication between passengers and the Internet. Standardization efforts on vehicular communication are also underway to make vehicular transportation safer, greener and easier. The aim of the journal is to publish high quality peer–reviewed papers in the area of vehicular communications. The scope encompasses all types of communications involving vehicles, including vehicle–to–vehicle and vehicle–to–infrastructure. The scope includes (but not limited to) the following topics related to vehicular communications: Vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to infrastructure communications Channel modelling, modulating and coding Congestion Control and scalability issues Protocol design, testing and verification Routing in vehicular networks Security issues and countermeasures Deployment and field testing Reducing energy consumption and enhancing safety of vehicles Wireless in–car networks Data collection and dissemination methods Mobility and handover issues Safety and driver assistance applications UAV Underwater communications Autonomous cooperative driving Social networks Internet of vehicles Standardization of protocols.
