Wireless Communication Networks Supported by Autonomous UAVs and Mobile Ground Robots covers wireless sensor networks and cellular networks. For wireless sensor networks, the book presents approaches using mobile robots or UAVs to collect sensory data from sensor nodes. For cellular networks, it discusses the approaches to using UAVs to work as aerial base stations to serve cellular users. In addition, the book  covers the challenges involved in these two networks, existing approaches (e.g., how to use the public transportation vehicles to play the role of mobile sinks to collect sensory data from sensor nodes), and potential methods to address open questions. - Gives a comprehensive understanding of the development of mobile robot-supported wireless communication approaches - Provides the latest approaches of mobile robot-supported wireless communication, including scheduling approaches with multiple robots and the online and reactive navigation algorithm - Covers interesting research scenarios that include the system model, problem statement, solution and results so that readers will be able to design their own system - Presents unresolved research issues and future research directions

Dr. Hailong Huang received a B.Sc. degree in automation, from China University of Petroleum, Beijing, China, in June 2012, and received Ph.D degree in Systems and Control from the University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia, in March 2018. From Feb. 2018 to July 2021, he worked as a postdoctoral research fellow at the School of Electrical Engineering and Telecommunications, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia. He is now an assistant professor at the Department of Aeronautical and Aviation Engineering, the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. His current research interests include the coordination, navigation and control of ground robots and unmanned aerial vehicles.
