Application of EEUC-based inter aircraft ultraviolet communication network algorithm in energy consumption optimization of drone swarm

Abstract

Abstract With the widespread application of drone technology, energy management of drone swarms has become a key challenge in ensuring sustained and efficient operations. To optimize the energy consumption of drone swarms, researchers have proposed the energy balance plane routing algorithm. This algorithm uses ultraviolet light for low visibility communication and has shown promising results in managing the energy of drone swarms. To address the issues of uneven cluster head distribution and reduced energy consumption in other algorithms, an improved non-uniform clustering energy balancing routing algorithm is proposed. Compared to existing algorithms, the improved non-uniform clustering energy balancing routing algorithm achieved the lowest average communication consumption among 5 nodes and prolonged node failure time. The performance of the research method has been verified through simulation experiments, which is of great significance in maintaining energy consumption balance and can improve the energy efficiency and sustainability of the network. This study can provide more effective solutions for the development and application of drone technology, promoting its widespread application and promotion in various fields.
