Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have gained great interest for rapid deployment in both civil and military applications. UAV communication has its own distinctive channel characteristics compared with widely used cellular and satellite systems. Thus, accurate channel characterization is crucial for the performance optimization and design of efficient UAV communication systems. However, several challenges exist in UAV channel modeling. For example, propagation characteristics of UAV channels are still less explored for spatial and temporal variations in non-stationary channels. Also, airframe shadowing has not yet been investigated for small size rotary UAVs. This paper provides an extensive survey on the measurement campaigns launched for UAV channel modeling using low altitude platforms and discusses various channel characterization efforts. We also review the contemporary perspective of UAV channel modeling approaches and outline some future research challenges in this domain.

Abstract-We consider the problem of mitigating a highly varying wireless channel between a transmitting ground node and receivers on a small, low-altitude unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in a 802.11 wireless mesh network. One approach is to use multiple transmitter and receiver nodes that exploit the channel's spatial/temporal diversity and that cooperate to improve overall packet reception. We present a series of measurement results from a real-world testbed that characterize the resulting wireless channel. We show that the correlation between receiver nodes on the airplane is poor at small time scales so receiver diversity can be exploited. Our measurements suggest that using several receiver nodes simultaneously can boost packet delivery rates substantially. Lastly, we show that similar results apply to transmitter selection diversity as well.
