| Sumario: | Due to their maneuverability, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have grown into a promising enabler of the Internet of Things (IoTs). In addition to the benefits of the bandwidth and communication quality of millimeter-wave (mmWave) systems, a UAV-aided mmWave multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) communication system is investigated in this paper for the data collection of IoT systems, in which single-antenna IoT devices are divided into several clusters, and the UAV aided mmWave base station (UAV-BS) collects data from each cluster using the time division scheme. The joint optimization of the beam selection, UAV trajectory, user clustering, power allocation and transmission duration is studied in this paper to improve the data collection efficiency. The solution of the problem is then given in three steps. Firstly, the incremental <i>K</i>-means clustering and ant colony optimization algorithm are utilized to handle the UAV trajectory planning and user clustering problem. Secondly, an incremental beam selection scheme is employed to ensure that all the devices in each cluster can communicate with the UAV. Thirdly, an iterative algorithm is proposed by alternately optimizing the power allocation and transmission duration of the IoT devices. Finally, the simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed solution for the UAV-aided mmWave communication system. |
