Investigation of Air-to-Air Channel Characteristics and a UAV Specific Extension to the Rice Model
Abstract
One of the key challenges while operating multiple unmanned aerial systems (UAS) is to maintain reliable air-to-ground (A2G) and air-to-air (A2A) communication links. In previous works, the authors have introduced a communication-aware mobility behavior which takes communication constraints and overall mission goals into account. In order to further improve the mobility behavior with the help of a channel estimator, accurate models of the dynamic A2A channel are a necessity. In this work, we extend the Rice channel model to account for multipath effects introduced by the flight altitude of unmanned vehicles on an IEEE 802.11 communication link. Based on laboratory measurements and several experimental flights the influence on the channel is evaluated and exemplary model parameters are derived.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
