Abstract
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are assumed to be a promising model of automatic emergency tasks in dynamic marine ecosystems. But, the real-time communication efficacy betwixt UAVs and base platforms is developing a serious challenge. The compact-sized powerful flying robots can be wirelessly controlled and accomplish end tasks with and without human involvement. UAVs still face severe challenges that limit the dream of completely autonomous unmanned flying machines. The main difficulties contain path planning and hindrance avoidance of such unmanned flying robots, which are mandatory but carry out the application-specific functionality in either indoor or outdoor environments. This study introduces a new Dispersal Foraging Strategy with Cuckoo Search Optimization based Path Planning (DFSCSO-PP) technique for UAV networks. In the presented DFSCSO-PP technique, the identification of optimal paths for data transmission is performed in the UAV network. In addition, the presented DFSCSO-PP technique involves the optimal allocation of resources while finding the optimal paths in the network. Moreover, the DFSCSO technique can be designed by integrating the DFS concept into the CSO method to avoid local optima problems. A widespread simulation analysis is performed to exhibit the enhanced outcome of the DFSCSO-PP approach. A detailed set of comparative studies assured the improved performance of the DFSCSO-PP technique over other approaches.
