UAV-BS Integration with Urban Infrastructure: An Energy Efficiency Prespective

The integration of uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs)

with fifth-generation (5G) cellular networks has been a prominent

research focus in recent years and continues to attract significant

interest in the context of sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks.

UAVs can serve as aerial wireless platforms to provide on-demand

coverage, mobile edge computing, and enhanced sensing and

communication services. However, UAV-assisted networks present

new opportunities and challenges due to the inherent size, weight,

and power constraints of UAVs, their controllable mobility, and

the line-of-sight (LoS) characteristics of communication channel
