Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have become increasingly important in assisting 5G and beyond 5G (B5G) mobile networks. Indeed, UAVs have all the potentials to both satisfy the ever-increasing mobile data demands of such mobile networks and provide ubiquitous connectivity to different kinds of wireless devices. However, the UAV assistance paradigm faces a set of crucial issues and challenges. For example, the network management of current UAV-assisted systems is time consuming, complicated, and carried out manually, thus causing a multitude of interoperability issues. To efficiently address all these issues, Software-Defined Network (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) are two promising technologies to efficiently manage and improve the UAV assistance for the next generation of mobile networks. In the literature, no clear guidelines are describing the different use cases of SDN and NFV in the context of UAV assistance to terrestrial networks, including mobile networks. Motivated by this fact, in this survey, we guide the reader through a comprehensive discussion of the main characteristics of SDN and NFV technologies. Moreover, we provide a thorough analysis of the different classifications, use cases, and challenges related to UAV-assisted systems. We then discuss SDN/NFV-enabled UAV-assisted systems, along with several case studies and issues, such as the involvement of UAVs in cellular communications, monitoring, and routing, to name a few. We furthermore present a set of open research challenges, high-level insights, and future research directions related to UAV-assisted systems.

In 2030, 6G is going to bring remarkable revolution in communication technologies as it will enable Internet of Everything. Still many countries are working over 5G and B5G has yet to be developed, while some research groups have already initiated projects on 6G. 6G will provide high and sophisticated QoS e.g. virtual reality and holographic communication. At this stage, it is impossible to speculate every detail of 6G and which key technologies will mark 6G. The wide applications of ICT, such as IoT, AI, blockchain technology, XR (Extended Reality) and VR (Virtual Reality), has created the emergence of 6G technology. On the basis of 5G technique, 6G will put profound impact over ubiquitous connectivity, holographic connectivity, deep connectivity and intelligent connectivity. Notably, research fraternity should focus on challenges and issues of 6G. They need to explore various alternatives to meet desired parameters of 6G. Thus, there are many potential challenges to be envisioned. This review study outlines some future challenges and issues which can hamper deployment of 6G. We subsequently define key potential features of 6G to provide the state of the art of 6G technology for future research. We have provided a review of extant research on 6G. In this review, technology prospects, challenges, key areas and related issues are briefly discussed. In addition, we have provided technologies breakdown and framework of 6G. We have shed light over future directions, applications and practical considerations of 6G to help researchers for possible breakthroughs. Our aim is to aggregate the efforts and eliminate the technical uncertainties towards breakthrough innovations for 6G.

“…In VLC systems, the optical signal is transmitted by a Light Emitted Diode (LED) while the signal is received by a photo detector. In many papers, the VLC can be employed for optical wireless communication (Huang et al;2019;Lin et al, 2020;Qin et al, 2020).…”

In wireless optical systems, Visible Light Communication (VLC) is one of the most popular communication systems. In this study, a Bit Error Rate (BER) performance comparison is given for Variable On-Off Keying (VOOK) and Variable Pulse Position Modulation (VPPM) which are extensively used in VLC systems. According to simulation and theoretical results, it is shown that the BER performances of systems are similar. In this paper, an ambient light noise is added to Additive White Gaussian Noise to extend the BER performance analysis. From simulation results, it is obtained that the impact of ambient light noise is very high for VOOK while it is quite poor for VPPM. Hence, the BER performance of VPPM has better than that of VOOK under ambient light noise.
