A New Framework for Multi-Hop ABS-Assisted 5G-Networks With Users’ Mobility Prediction

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have gained momentum as one of the potential solutions in 5 G networks. Indeed, using UAVs as Aerial Base Stations (ABS) to assist the traditional cellular infrastructure and/or extend its coverage represents a high-potential flexible and cost-effective approach to provide on-demand communications in these new generations of networks. Yet, their effective deployment...
