Unmanned aerial vehicles integratedHetNetfor smart dense urban area

Abstract

AbstractDue to the massive growth of mobile users, the demand for data traffic along with coverage enhancement has significantly increased and put a significant burden on the pre‐existing system like infrastructure based cellular networks, etc., especially in the urban zone. The inabilities and inefficiencies of pre‐existing systems in handling a large number of traffic demands is a major concern. One way by which the existing infrastructure based cellular network can fulfill the above requirements by the increasing power level of radiations. But increasing the radiation power levels above a safety value defined by international exposure standards results in adverse health effects in the society. The impact is more on the urban societies because of congestion dwelling than rural areas. A vital solution to the above challenges of full filling the user's demand capacity as well as prevent the society from adverse health effects are to control ground‐level data plane network aerially. That is not to make mobile users utterly dependent on the existing base stations. This could be possible through such as Loon Technology, Tethered Balloon, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) concept, etc. The key objective is to efficiently deploy a HetNet wireless network using UAVs in urban canyons for great coverage and capacity enhancement and reduce the effects of radiations. The simulation results show the betterment in spectral efficiency, transmission range, transmission delays, and efficient packet delivery.
