Abstract
Using drones for cellular coverage enhancement is
a recent technology that has shown a great potential in various
practical scenarios. However, one of the main challenges that
limits the performance of drone-enabled wireless networks is the
limited flight time. In particular, due to the limited on-board
battery size, the drone needs to frequently interrupt its operation and fly back to a charging station to recharge/replace its
battery. In addition, the charging station might be responsible
to recharge multiple drones. Given that the charging station has
limited capacity, it can only serve a finite number of drones
simultaneously. Hence, in order to accurately capture the influence of the battery limitation on the performance, it is required
to analyze the dynamics of the time spent by the drones at the
charging stations. In this paper, we use tools from queuing theory and stochastic geometry to study the influence of each of
the charging stations limited capacity and spatial density on the
performance of a drone-enabled wireless network.
