The effect of wind disturbances on the stability of six-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) was investigated, exploring the various disturbances in different directions. The simulation model-based Euler–Poincare equation was established to investigate the spectra of Lyapunov exponents. Next, the value of the Lyapunov exponents was used to evaluate the stability of the systems. The results obtained show that the various speeds of rotors are optimized to keep up the stability after disturbances. In addition, the flight experiment with the hitting gust has been carried out to verify the validity and accuracy of the simulation results.

Abstract Combining unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with 6G, Internet of Things (IoT) and other emerging communication technologies could better satisfy various IoT applications and create more innovative services. This paper develops a novel hierarchical 6G IoT network with UAVs in the sky and intelligent reflective surface (IRS) equipped. The system employs backscattering communication (BackCom) to transmit data in a free-ride manner. Through beamforming, IRS enhances the energy of the reflectable signal, thereby improving the distance and performance of the BackCom. Simulation results reveal that our approach makes a significant improvement to the performance of the whole system, and takes obvious advantage over traditional solutions.

Summary This paper proposes an intelligent cooperative collision avoidance approach combining the enhanced potential field (EPF) with a fuzzy inference system (FIS) to resolve local minima and goal non-reachable with obstacles nearby issues and provide a near-optimal collision-free trajectory. A genetic algorithm is utilized to optimize parameters of membership function and rule base of the FISs. This work uses a single scenario containing all issues and interactions among unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for training. For validating the performance, two scenarios containing obstacles with different shapes and several UAVs in small airspace are considered. Multiple simulation results show that the proposed approach outperforms the conventional EPF approach statistically.
