They can be remotely controlled or completely autonomous and be used alone or as a fleet and in a large set of applications. They are constrained by hardware since they cannot be too heavy and rely on batteries. Their use still raises a large set of exciting new challenges in terms of trajectory optimization and positioning when they are used alone or in cooperation, and communication when they evolve in swarm, to name but a few examples. This book presents some new original contributions regarding UAV or UAV swarm optimization and communication aspects.Information technology industriesbicssc3D modelsalgorithmsaperiodic arrayscollision-freecommunicationcomplex field network coding (CFNC)configuration controlcontrol co-designcooperative communicationCramer-Rao bounddata collectiondata collection utilitydata offloadingdecentralized sliding mode controldirection-of-arrival estimationdronesdynamic modeledge computingenergy consumptionGPS measurementinternet of thingsjammingmeasurement precisionmission completion timemobile nodesmobile robotsmulti-access edge computing systemsmultiple unmanned aerial vehiclesmultiplicative noisesMUSICoptimizationpower controlresource allocationresource-based pricingrisk-awarenesssecrecy rate maximizationself-organizationsensorsstochastic robustness analysis and designstochastic systemswarmsynchronized multi-agent formationtopology structuretrajectory designtrajectory planningUAVUAV fleetUAV replacementUAV secure communicationUAV swarmUAV-enabled computingunmanned aerial vehicleunmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)unmanned aerial vehicleswirelesswireless sensor networksInformation technology industriesMitton Nathalieedt1290167Caillouet ChristelleedtMitton NathalieothCaillouet ChristelleothBOOK9910557109103321Optimization and Communication in UAV Networks3021378UNINA
