Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have become one of the rapidly growing areas with widespread applications covering various domains. UAVs play a very important role in the Internet of Things (IoT) which is consists of small, low power devices known as sensors. These sensors are energy-constrained devices which unable to communicate over long distances. Therefore, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) work dynamically for such an IoT scenario that collects the data and communicates it to other devices that are out of the communication ranges. The unique benefits of the UAV over IoT include deployment at remote locations, the ability to carry flexible payloads, re-programmability during tasks, and ability to sense for anything from anywhere. Using the Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, a UAV can be observed as a terminal device connected in the ubiquitous network, where many other UAVs are communicated, navigated, controlled, and surveilled in real-time and beyond-line-of-sight.
However, many significant research challenges should be concerned to bring such capabilities of UAVs into practice. This book aims to explore the theoretical as well as technical research outcomes on all the aspects of UAVs over IoT. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) have drastically modified users, practitioners and researcher's perspectives for many fields of application, such as disaster management, structural inspection, goods delivery, and transportation, localization and mapping, pollution and radiation monitoring, search and rescue, farming, etc. The advancements introduced by UAVs are innumerable and have led the way for the full integration of UAVs, as intelligent objects, into the Internet of Things (IoT).
To help realize the full potential of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles for the Internet of Things (IoT), the book addresses its numerous Concepts, issues, challenges and develops the conceptual and technological solutions for tackling them.
