Multiple Drone-Cell Deployment Analyses and Optimization in Drone Assisted Radio Access Networks

In this paper, we propose a drone assisted radio access networks architecture in which drone-cells are leveraged to relay data between base stations and users. Based on the state-of-the-art drone-to-user and drone-to-base station (D2B) channel models, we first analyze the user coverage and the D2B b...
