Joint Bandwidth and Position Optimization in UAV Networks Deployed for Disaster Scenarios

In this paper, we consider a disaster-affected area that has lost cellular connectivity. In such a scenario, we study a unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) network deployed to restore the user connections to the core network. In particular, we propose a resource partitioning scheme for integrated access and backhaul in the downlink to sustain the user connections. First, we derive an analytical expressi...
