任务持续时间约束下的无人机辅助蜂窝网络航迹优化

Trajectory Optimization in UAV-Assisted Cellular Networks under Mission Duration Constraint

Md Moin Uddin Chowdhury, Eyuphan Bulut, Ismail Guvenc

摘要:

在本文中,我们解决的问题,找到最佳的轨迹无人机(UAV),以提高地面蜂窝网络的无线覆盖。特别是,我们考虑的无人机的任务是在给定的时间限制内从一个点到另一个点,它也可以同时通过在其任务期间提供无线覆盖来协助蜂窝网络。考虑到蜂窝网络的干扰受限下行链路,我们制定了一个优化问题,最大限度地提高蜂窝网络的比例公平(PF)的数据速率和探索动态规划(DP)技术,找到最佳的无人机轨迹。我们还探讨了最佳无人机轨迹与最大和率和第5百分位频谱效率(5pSE)率,并比较了容量和覆盖性能的三种方法。数值仿真结果表明,最大和速率轨迹提供了最佳的每用户容量,而最佳PF轨迹产生更高的覆盖概率比其他两个轨迹。由于运动学的限制,无人机不能急转弯,因此最优轨迹通常不可行。因此,我们使用Bezier曲线生成平滑的轨迹。

英文摘要:

In this paper, we address the problem of finding the optimal trajectory for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) for improving the wireless coverage of a terrestrial cellular network. In particular, we consider a UAV that is tasked to travel from one point to another within a given time constraint, and it can also simultaneously assist the cellular network by providing wireless coverage during its mission. Considering an interference limited downlink of a cellular network, we formulate an optimization problem for maximizing the proportional-fair (PF) data rate of the cellular network and explore dynamic programming (DP) technique for finding the optimum UAV trajectory. We also explore the optimal UAV trajectories associated with maximum sum-rate and 5th percentile spectral efficiency (5pSE) rate and compare the capacity and coverage performance of the three approaches. Numerical simulations show that the maximum sum-rate trajectory provides the best per user capacity whereas, the optimal PF trajectory yields higher coverage probability than the other two trajectories. The optimal trajectories are generally infeasible to follow exactly as the UAVs can not take sharp turns due to kinematic constraints. Hence, we generate smooth trajectories using Bezier curve.
