The convergence of drone delivery systems, virtual worlds, and blockchain has transformed logistics and supply chain management, providing a fast, and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional ground transportation methods;Provide users with a real-world experience, virtual service providers need to collect up-to-the-minute delivery information from edge devices. To address this challenge, 1) a reinforcement learning approach is introduced to enable drones with fast training capabilities and the ability to autonomously adapt to new virtual scenarios for effective resource allocation.2) A semantic communication framework for meta-universes is proposed, which utilizes the extraction of semantic information to reduce the communication cost and incentivize the transmission of information for meta-universe services.3) In order to ensure that user information security, a lightweight authentication and key agreement scheme is designed between the drone and the user by introducing blockchain technology. In our experiments, the drone adaptation performance is improved by about 35\%, and the local offloading rate can reach 90\% with the increase of the number of base stations. The semantic communication system proposed in this paper is compared with the Cross Entropy baseline model. Introducing blockchain technology the throughput of the transaction is maintained at a stable value with different number of drones.

基于标签的视觉惯性定位是一种轻量级的方法,用于实现低成本无人机(UAV)在室内施工环境中的自主数据汇集任务。然而,找到最佳标签配置(即,数量、规模和位置)仍然具有挑战性。本文提出了一种基于感知遗传算法的标签布局规划器(PGA-TaPP),以确定最佳的标签配置使用4D-BIM,考虑项目进度,安全要求,和无人机的本地化。所提出的方法提供了一个4D的标签放置计划,通过最大限度地提高在用户指定的感兴趣区域(ROI)的本地化,同时限制安装成本。可定位性使用Fisher信息矩阵(Fisher information matrix)进行量化,并封装在可导航的网格中。实验结果表明,我们的方法在寻找一个最佳的4D标签放置计划的鲁棒定位的无人机在建设中的室内场地的有效性。
