Energy-Efficient and Fast Data Collection in UAV-Aided Wireless Sensor Networks for Hilly Terrains
Energy-constrained sensor nodes are often deployed in remote, hilly, and hard-to-reach areas for civilian and military purposes. In such wireless sensor networks (WSNs), an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) can be used to collect data from the sensor nodes. Low-altitude UAVs can be utilized to reduce th...
