Description
Summary:The analysis of utilising unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to form flying networks in obstacle conditions and various algorithms for obstacle avoidance is conducted. A planning scheme for deploying a flying LiFi network based on UAVs in a production facility with obstacles is developed and described. Such networks are necessary to ensure reliable data transmission from sensors or other sources of information located in dangerous or hard-to-reach places to the crisis centre. Based on the planning scheme, the following stages are described: (1) laying the LiFi signal propagation route in conditions of interference, (2) placement of the UAV at the specified points of the laid route for the deployment of the LiFi network, and (3) ensuring the reliability of the deployed LiFi network. Strategies for deploying UAVs from a stationary depot to form a flying LiFi network in a room with obstacles are considered, namely the strategy of the first point for the route, the strategy of radial movement, and the strategy of the middle point for the route. Methods for ensuring the uninterrupted functioning of the flying LiFi network with the required level of reliability within a given time are developed and discussed. To implement the planning stages for deploying the UAV flying LiFi network in a production facility with obstacles, the “Simulation Way” and “Reliability Level” software tools are developed and described. Examples of utilising the proposed software tools are given.
