Abstract: Disclosed is a method of path optimization for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). In the method, users and the positions of the users are obtained; the users are divided into K wireless multicast user groups; K initial hovering positions corresponding to the K wireless multicast user groups are determined; and a first shortest flying path connecting the K initial hovering positions is determined; and the initial hovering positions of the UAV are optimized to obtain K final hovering positions and a final flying path. The present disclosure also discloses a device of path optimization for a UAV and a computer readable storage medium.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods for beam tracking. In the methods, a transmitting unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) receives motion state information (MSI) of a receiving UAV and determines a first beam angle from the transmitting UAV to the receiving UAV according to the MSI of the receiving UAV. Then the transmitting UAV selects a codeword from a codebook according to the first beam angle. Finally, the transmitting UAV determines an activated sub-array and a beam-forming vector of the CCA according to the size of the activated sub-array corresponding to the sub-codebook to which the codeword belongs, a second beam angle corresponding to the codeword and a location of a central antenna element of an activated sub-array corresponding to the codeword and transmits information using the beam-forming vector. One or more examples of the present disclosure also provide a method for beam tracking implemented by the receiving UAV, methods for generating a codebook.
