This paper makes two major contributions. Firstly, a new monitoring and tracking wireless system is developed to handle the COVID-19 spread problem. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), i.e., drones, are used as base stations as well as data collection points from Internet of Things (IoT) devices on the ground. These UAVs are also able to exchange data with other UAVs and cloud servers. Secondly, this paper introduces a new reinforcement learning (RL) framework for learning the optimal signal-aware UAV trajectories under quality of service constraints. The proposed RL algorithm is instrumental in making the UAV movement decisions that maximize the signal power at the receiver and the data collected from the ground agents. Simulation experiments confirm that the system overcomes conventional wireless monitoring systems and demonstrates efficiency especially in terms of flexible continues connectivity, line-of sight visibility, and collision avoidance.</p>Ayoub AlsarhanIslam AlmalkawiYousef KilaniInternational Association of Online Engineering (IAOE)articlecontact tracing, uavs, covid-19, wireless monitoring system, wireless mesh networks, reinforcement learningTelecommunicationTK5101-6720ENInternational Journal of Interactive Mobile Technologies, Vol 15, Iss 22, Pp 111-126 (2021) |
