UAVs deployment in heterogeneous networks: enhancing video streaming QoE
Abstract—In recent years, the use of UAVs (Unmanned Aerial
Vehicles) to boost mobile networking technology performance is
rising interest in the scientific community. UAVs can be used as
aerial relays to be deployed in 4G/LTE networks. Small scale
UAVs, such as quadrotors or small fixed wing drones, are able
to carry a wide variety of sensors, actuators and communication
equipments. Due to the increasing interest in this field, UAVs
have become more and more affordable and even off-the-shelf
