“…The integration of UAV simulator and network simulator is another key component in our development towards the laboratory platform as it bridges two types of behaviors, i.e., drone behavior and communication network behavior, and enables the simulation in a joint manner. Recently, there have been several studies towards the integration of robotics simulation framework, and discrete network event simulation framework [22][23][24]. The main idea is to utilize ROS as the drone interface with supported mechanisms like publish/subscribe where is also followed by MAVLink, or implemented module to integrate network simulator with drone simulator.…”
