Abstract
With the convenience and flexibility, the UAV has received more attention in the search and rescue. Due to inherent mobility of UAV, the aerial backbone network maybe suffers some problems of dynamics of connectivity, such as uncertain delay jitter or occasional connection interruption. However, the existing mobility model could not accurately capture aerial mobility without the smooth trajectory and the capacity of rapid coverage. In this paper, we propose a novel mobility model based on spiral line (SLMM) for aerial backbone network. Firstly, we describe the background and related work. Then, we propose the basic concept and advantages of SLMM. In addition, we investigate the mathematical feature of SLMM. Besides, we propose some novel mobility metrics and analyze quantitatively the mobility feature of SLMM through simulation. Finally, we evaluate the network performance under the SLMM. The result show that the SLMM has the smooth trajectory and the uniform distribution of spatial nodes at steady state. In addition, covering the zone of area of 16pi the aerial node merely take almost 27s under the SLMM. Meanwhile, the convergence time could be adjusted by changing the internal parameters. Moreover, the aerial backbone network could approach the throughput of 0.43Mb/s, the end-to-end delay of 4.42ms and the packet loss rate of nearly 0.00%° under the SLMM, and the best choice of routing strategy is the AODV protocol. We believe that the SLMM as a significant supplement of mobility model can provide the helpful guideline in the design and analysis of aerial backbone network.
Highlights
In recent years, the issue of urban security has received more attention, especially in disaster
We propose a novel aerial mobility model (AMM) based on spiral line (SLMM) for aerial backbone network
Most nodes approximately distribute the central line of the zone under the Body Gaussian-Markov model (BGMM), because the selection of speed and direction based on the Markov-Chain, thereby a certain degree of correlation could be ensured between adjacent destination
Summary
The issue of urban security has received more attention, especially in disaster. He et al.: Novel Mobility Models Based on Spiral Line for Aerial Backbone Networks sharp direction. We propose a novel AMM based on spiral line (SLMM) for aerial backbone network. We review some related works to investigate whether the existing mobility model could satisfy these requirements of AMM. The simulation reveals that compared with other mobility models the aerial backbone network has the higher network throughput, lower end-to-end delay and lower packet loss rate under the SLMM. The SLMM is first authentic AMM which possesses smooth trajectory, the capacity of superior coverage and outstanding network performance, thereby it could be directly deployed in the actual scene to help design optimal aerial backbone networks.
