Efficient UAV Path Planning and Energy Optimization with Cooperative System Model for Vehicular Adhoc Networks

Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) is a highly trending technology which occupies lots of applications of intelligent communications in day to day life. Typically, vehicles in a vehicular network move at rapid speeds with unpredictable mobility, leading to frequent changes in the network’s structure. Consequently, this might cause some problems while transmitting data between vehicles. In addition, external activities might lead to data loss. In order to overcome certain drawbacks in recent times ground level to air level data connectivity is concentrated which includes the concept of Unmanned Aerial Networks (UAV). The primary obstacles in the construction of UAV is that its network formation and path finding process. For the purpose of overcoming these kinds of drawbacks in this article effective UAV path planning and the energy optimization (EUPEO) is concentrated in the vehicular communication. Through this process the communication is carried out in an effective manner with intelligent path planning of UAV and as well it reduces the delay and energy consumption. The idea is implemented in ns3 and from the final outcome it is obviously proven that the EUPEO method achieved superior results than previous methods concerned with efficiency and as well the delivery rate of the information transmitted.
