Design and implementation of UAV-enabled flying access points

We propose a new kind of UAV communication structure that enables UAVs to form in the shapes of “clusters”, enabling more UAVs to be controlled simultaneously and provide large-scale services such as Wi-Fi access points. Evaluation tests are performed to test the performance of our proposed architecture and the bandwidth of the Wi-Fi access points.
