Air-Aided Communication Between Ground Assets in a Poisson Forest

Juan David Pabon, Shaikha Alkandari, Matthew C. Valenti +1

Ground assets deployed in a cluttered environment with randomized obstacles (e.g., a forest) may experience line of sight (LoS) obstruction due to those obstacles. Air assets can b…
