Optimal Quadcopter Placement using Brute Force method for Efficient 5G Communication
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022) Kanapuram, K.; Priyanka, B.; Manohar, S.; Manjappa, M.
Quadcopters are finding its application in many areas nowadays. Fifth Generation (5G) mobile communication is one area where quadcopters can be made used to assist in providing mobile communication. Quadcopters can be deployed to provide 5G mobile network communication in areas where the network is down due to natural calamities. And there are situations where the network coverage has to be extended temporarily to provide temporary service on demand, for example, when there is an outdoor gathering at a place where mobile network coverage is unavailable. The quadcopters can also be used to assist terrestrial base stations, also called eNodeB, when it is down or overloaded with many users. In all the above cases the quadcopter can be made use of by making it to hover in the dedicated geographical area to provide 5G network service. The ideal height and exact location at which the quadcopter should hover is dependent on the number of users and how they are scattered in the area under consideration. This article focuses on ideal quadcopter placement by finding all the axes in 3 dimension for the quadcopter to hover so that the network coverage and Quality of Service (QoS) to all users is optimal.
