UAV-Based Volumetric Measurements toward Radio Environment Map Construction and Analysis

Abstract: Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-empowered communications have gained significant attention in recent years due to the promise of agile coverage provision for a large number of various mobile nodes on the ground and in three-dimensional (3D) space. Consequently, there is a need for efficient spectrum utilization in these dense aerial networks, which is characterized through radio environment maps (REMs), the construction of which is an important research area. Nevertheless, due to the difficult collection of radi… Show more

“…Development of interpolation methods for REM has seen remarkable progress in the recent years, including multidomain REM reconstruction and measurement collection approaches, as well as in applications for vehicular and UAV-based communications, spectrum sharing, and terrestrial networks coverage mapping [4], [5], [18], [25], [26]. This Section describes the main features and limitations of relevant works in the field of reduced sampling interpolation for spatial REM reconstruction, to outline the contributions of this paper.…”

“…Thus, it allows for dividing the coverage region into clusters where CR nodes can communicate under the interference constraints of the incumbent users. These applications emphasize the value of accurate REM reconstruction from reduced sets of measurements, which becomes a more difficult problem in spatial 3D due to the RSS variations in height [18].…”

“…Unfortunately, the measuring distance induces high measurement error, making it hard for quantitative evaluation of small objects [ 10 ]. UAVs can quickly cover a broad area from all angles and obtain high-resolution photographs from close range, realizing the object’s three-dimensional measurement [ 11 ]. However, data accuracy depends on the reliability of the positioning system and IMU [ 12 ], and the mass image demand of tilt photography modeling greatly increases flight time [ 13 ], reducing the efficiency advantage.…”
