“…Sensors placed in an agricultural field can be either stationary or remote. Remote sensors can be accomplished in the air through the use of a flying drone [63][64][65][66][67] or on the ground via a patrolled vehicle [68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83]. The choice between stationary and remote sensor networks comes with is a tradeoff between flexibility and cost as stationary uses a fixed sensing grid, which limits reconfigurability, but is lower implementation and use cost.…”

As today's agriculture industry is facing numerous challenges, including climate changes, encroachment of the urban environment and lack of qualified farmers, there is a need for new practices to ensure sustainable agriculture and food supply. Consequently, there is an emphasis on upgrading the farming practices by shifting towards Smart Farming (SF) -utilizing advanced information and communication technologies to improve the quantity and quality of the crop with minimal labor interference. SF has gained lots of interest in recent years utilizing a variety of technological innovations in the field, which imposes a challenge on farmers and technology integrators to identify the suitable technologies and best practices for a particular application. This paper provides a survey of the most recent SF scientific literature to identify common practices toward technology integration, challenges, and solutions. The survey was conducted on 588 papers published on the IEEE database following Cochrane methods to ensure appropriate analysis and interpretation of results. The papers' contributions were analyzed to identify necessary technologies that constitute SF, and consequently, research themes were identified. The identified themes are sensors, communication, big data, actuators and machines, and data analysis. Besides presenting an in-depth analysis of each identified theme, the paper discusses integrating more than one technology in systems to achieve independency. The most common SF systems are remote monitoring, autonomous, and intelligent decision-making systems.

“…In some applications such as agricultural spraying and package delivery, a predetermined payload capacity cannot be used, since weight of the carried package can dynamically be changed during the mission. The dynamic change in the weight of the payload can influence on stability and controllability of the UAV [142]. The weight of payloads is varied from tens of grams up to hundreds of kilograms.…”

The use of drones, formally known as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), has significantly increased across a variety of applications over the past few years. This is due to the rapid advancement towards the design and production of inexpensive and dependable UAVs and the growing request for the utilization of such platforms particularly in civil applications. With their intrinsic attributes such as high mobility, rapid deployment and flexible altitude, UAVs have the potential to be utilized in many wireless system applications. On the one hand, UAVs are able to operate as flying mobile terminals within wireless/cellular networks to support a variety of missions such as goods delivery, search and rescue, precision agriculture monitoring, and remote sensing. On the other hand, UAVs can be utilized as aerial base stations to increase wireless communication coverage, reliability, and the capacity of wireless systems without additional investment in wireless systems infrastructure. The aim of this article is to review the current applications of UAVs for civil and commercial purposes. The focus of this paper is on the challenges and communication requirements associated with UAV-based communication systems. This article initially classifies UAVs in terms of various parameters, some of which can impact UAVs' communication performance. It then provides an overview of aerial networking and investigates UAVs routing protocols specifically, which are considered as one of the challenges in UAV communication. This article later investigates the use of UAV networks in a variety of civil applications and considers many challenges and communication demands of these applications. Subsequently, different types of simulation platforms are investigated from a communication and networking viewpoint. Finally, it identifies areas of future research.
