An efficient sweeping beamforming technique for low-altitude platform-to-sensor communications

This paper develops a new technique for generating sweeping beams that originated from low-altitude drone platform to improve the communications performance and energy consumption at sensor nodes. The proposed technique uses two-dimensional array weighted by cosine-square amplitude profile with line...
