Abstract
FIU inventors have developped a method that overcomes the
drawbacks present in current UAV-based communication systems, such as high
interference and limited resources to achieve higher capacities by introducing
multi-user (MU) – massive multiple input single output (MISO) communication. By
using zero-forcing beamforming (ZFBF), MISO-based transmissions can reduce
network interference with other users, and generate highly directional beams
with high gain. Improved energy efficiency can lead to longer operational time
for UAV base stations. Furthermore, with the same resources being shared
between multiple users, MU-MISO based transmission is able to enhance system
capacity.Benefit
Useful for interference management and for enhancing the capacity of UAV-based communication networks Maximizes system capacity and energy efficiencyMarket Application
The invention will enhance UAV communication network deployment in dynamic environments, such as natural disaster sites and hot spot communication scenarios, where ground-based communication infrastructures have been destroyed
