A Method to Reduce Route Discovery Cost of UAV Ad Hoc Network

The unmanned aerial vehicle communication networks (UAVCNs) are composed of vehicles (UAVs) connected in ad hoc mode to facilitate vertical 5G and beyond networks. UAVs operating an operation mostly use reactive routing protocols establish routes the network reduce energy consumption nodes. In this article, a route discovery method is presented overhead faced by during phase. expanding ring search (ERS) used destination phase algorithm. Although performance ERS better than simple flooding, further reduces as compared conventional method. To achieve task, time live (TTL) modified accommodate large number nodes attempt. We proposed variants techniques for diverse application requirements with state-of-the-art technique. It has been demonstrated help simulations that algorithm outperforms terms reduced consumption.
