- Abstract
- Recently, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been widely used in wireless communication. They can serve as aerial base stations for ground users (GUs). However, they cannot work for long because of the limited energy pool, and thus can only cover a limited area of services. In this paper, we investigate a wireless communication system enabled by multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for downlink communication, where energy consumption is taken into consideration. Our goal is to maximize the UAV's service time and downlink throughput by using a deep-reinforcement learning method called deep-deterministic policy gradient (DDPG). Simulation results are illustrated to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method. © 2022 IEEE.
