“…The authors in [8] described a policy-based radio for UAVs in which the radio can consider spectrum opportunities and perform dynamic spectrum access (DSA). The authors in [67] presented a navigation data-assisted OSA scheme for heterogeneous UAV networks by flexibly scheduling the spectrum subbands. The authors in [45] presented an OSA scheme based on an efficient spectrum sensing algorithm and discussed the determination of spectrum processing time and priority control with the proposed algorithm.…”

Rapid increases in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) applications are attributed to severe spectrum collision issues, especially when UAVs operate in spectrum scarce environments, such as urban areas. Dynamic air-to-ground (A2G) link solutions can mitigate this issue by utilizing programmable communication hardware in the air and real-time assignment of spectrum resources to achieve high-throughput and low-latency connectivity between UAVs and operators. To mitigate the high-computation issue among ground control station (GCS) networks and provide a broad communication coverage for large number of UAVs, we propose an advanced UAV A2G communication solution integrated with the dynamic spectrum management (DSM) and network function virtualization (NFV) technology to serve urban operations. The edge-cutting UAV communication technologies are surveyed. The proposed scheme is discussed in terms of the high-level system architecture, virtual network architecture, specific virtual functions (SVFs), and affiliated operation support databases. Some major research challenges are highlighted and the possible directions of future research are identified.

“…The second paper entitled ''Navigation data-assisted opportunistic spectrum scheduling for network-based UAV systems: A parallel restless bandits formulation'' by Si et al [2] proposes a navigation data-assisted optimal opportunistic spectrum access scheme for wireless communications in heterogeneous UAV networks, to achieve maximized longterm data rate by flexibly scheduling the spectrum subbands. Furthermore, to formulate the optimal spectrum scheduling problem, the authors develop a parallel restless bandits model, which can reduce the NP-hard optimization problem to simply selecting the link with the minimum index in the online stage.…”
