Abstract

Recently, a flying ad-hoc network (FANET) has been employed in modern warfare for monitoring and reconnaissance to produce a healthy living environment in smart cities through multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). FANETs allow multiple UAVs to communicate in 3D space to establish an ad-hoc network. FANET applications, among others, can deliver cost-effective services to help future smart cities achieve their goals. However, adopting FANET technology in smart cities is difficult due to its challenges from UAV mobility, energy, and security considerations. Therefore, this study analyzed the new trends and technologies of smart city research and proposes research directions through FANET. This chapter aims to look at FANET's possible applications in smart cities and the implications and issues that come with them. Furthermore, it also goes over the current state of recent enabling technologies for FANET in order.
