INTRODUCTION/OVERVIEW
With the rapid development in the fields of wireless ad hoc networks that do not rely on any pre-existing infrastructure, Flying Ad hoc networks (FANETs) have recently captured the attention of vendors and investors due to the flying nature of entities in the network. FANET is composed of nodes that fly at high altitude platforms such as balloons, unmanned aerial vehicles or drones, which have the ability to fly without a human pilot aboard. The network of nodes that fly at high altitude has gained commercial and industrial popularity because of its applications in surveillance, agriculture, photography, etc. For instance, the new applications that are being developed for FANET bring up the new challenges such as multipath propagation, severe shadowing, traffic load balancing, mobility, congestion, high error rates, etc., that usually results in the performance degradation of the network. However, the applications developed and used in FANET may also result in collision with the commercial flights due to the above challenges.
The Federal Aviation Administration has been reported about the tremendous increase of more than 50% in the air traffic specifically the unmanned vehicles in 2017. However, such an increase in the UAVs results in an increase in the network traffic of FANET that may lead to an unbalanced traffic distribution, resulting in an increase in packet loss due to collision. Furthermore, the high data traffic generated by the number of nodes in FANET is one of the leading causes of accidents with the commercial flights. In order to cope with such kind of challenges, the network traffic of FANET must be distributed in such a way that it should neither disturb the commercial flights nor the communication among the nodes that fly at high altitudes in a network. This Special Issue therefore solicits original research work, novel protocols, methodologies and survey papers addressing the future challenges and solutions that embark on network resource management in FANETs. The topics of Special Issue include, but are not limited to:
- Efficient deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) at high altitude platforms (HAPs) for congestion avoidance and control
- Dynamic traffic load balancing for congestion avoidance through routing in Flying Ad hoc Networks
- Performance investigation of 5G systems with flying ad hoc networks (FANETs)
- An optimal data collection and dissemination technique for balanced traffic utilization in FANETs
- Distributed congestion-aware position oriented MAC/Routing protocols for FANETs
- Performance evaluation of layered protocols of TCP/IP for multimedia traffic in flying ad hoc networks (FANETs) at different altitude platforms
- Analysis of Reactive, proactive, and hybrid routing protocols for flying Ad Hoc networks
- Opportunistic routing for distributed video traffic dissemination over flying ad hoc networks
- A cross layer design for distributed information dissemination over flying ad hoc networks
- Agricultural environment monitoring system based on UAV in FANETs
- Congestion avoidance, detection, and mitigation in Flying Ad-Hoc Network for efficient utilization of network resources
- Distributed clustering approach for FANETs
- Enhanced connectivity for robust multimedia transmission in UAV networks
- Active Queue Management for resource sharing in Flying Ad hoc Networks
- Bio-inspired routing protocols for FANET routing
- Multi-hop and relay-based communications for distributed traffic load balancing
- Smart solutions to reduce congestion in FANETs
- Interaction of FANET with IoT
- Distributed Emergency Message Dissemination in FANET
