Abstract:
Due to the high flexibility and high maneuverability, UAVs play an important role in constructing the space-terrestrial integrated network (STIN). However, in STIN-assisted sparse IoT scenarios, a single UAV cannot provide seamless and long-term services due to its limit cruising duration, hence the cooperation of multiple UAVs becomes a remedy. This paper studies the cooperative strategy of multiple rechargeable UAVs under the constraints of supporting seamless and long-term information services for ground IoT nodes. Since the proposed problem is a mixed-integer non-convex problem, a sequential convex optimization technique based iterative algorithm is proposed to jointly optimize the IoT node assignment and UAV trajectory. Simulation results show the effectiveness of our proposed method.
