5G Communication QoS Measurements for Smart City UAV Services

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference article in proceedingsScientificpeer-review

Abstract

This work concentrates on studying 4G/5G mobile network technologies applied to smart city Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) services. It reviews the current state of the 5G technology and introduces UAV services for smart cities. In this paper, we describe our drone measurement platform and the results of the conducted communication QoS measurements in urban environment. The results indicate that 5G is clearly more sensitive to altitude changes than 4G network and this should be considered in the future mobile network planning.
