Research on characterizing the high dynamic performance of distributed FANETs

Abstract

Distributed Flying Ad-Hoc Networks (FANETs) have been widely used in collaborative reconnaissance, situation construction and other scenarios. Due to malicious damage, complex electromagnetic interference, and rapid movement of UAV nodes during flight, distributed FANET have high dynamic characteristics. However, most researches on the characterization of network dynamics cannot fully consider the influence of various factors, such as protocol self-interference. In this paper, by comprehensively considering the effects of node damage, channel fading, protocol self-interference and other factors, based on HCPP model, Weibull distribution model and other theories, we establish link outage probability of network model to characterize link randomness and high dynamicity. On this basis, link entropy rate and topology entropy rate model are established to characterize the high dynamic performance of distributed FANETs.
