Performance Analysis of Multi-Hop UAVs Using FSO Communications Under Humidity and Sandstorms Conditions

This paper investigates the performance of hovering unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) using free space optical (FSO) communications with decode-and-forward (DF) relaying. Multi-hop UAV relays are considered. The channel is modeled considering the atmospheric attenuation due to the sandstorm and relati...
