Abstract :
The papers in this special issue focus on research and field trials of unmanned autonomous vehicles on land, in the air and underwater. The suite of selected papers covers key challenges that impact on the communications dynamics and behaviour of unmanned autonomous vehicles of varying size and resource capability and address UAV bridging, topology maintenance,path planning and link performance optimisation in highly changeable deployments.
