论文摘要
在这项工作中，我们研究了由无人驾驶汽车（UAS）的可靠性和投资成本之间的权衡，这些空中系统（UAS）由一组携带无线电节点的无人机（UAV）组成，称为Portable Access点（PAPS）），部署以服务于一组地面节点（GNS）。使用所提出的算法，给定的地理区域等效地表示为一组圆形区域，其中每个圆表示PAP的覆盖区域。然后，通过将其建模为连续的时间出生死亡马尔可夫决策过程（MDP），可以在分析上得出UAS的稳态可用性。数值评估表明，可以通过考虑GNS的交通需求和分配来降低保证给定稳态可用性的投资成本。
In this work, we study the trade-off between the reliability and the investment cost of an unmanned aerial system (UAS) consisting of a set of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) carrying radio access nodes, called portable access points (PAPs)), deployed to serve a set of ground nodes (GNs). Using the proposed algorithm, a given geographical region is equivalently represented as a set of circular regions, where each circle represents the coverage region of a PAP. Then, the steady-state availability of the UAS is analytically derived by modelling it as a continuous time birth-death Markov decision process (MDP). Numerical evaluations show that the investment cost to guarantee a given steady-state availability to a set of GNs can be reduced by considering the traffic demand and distribution of GNs.
