Abstract

The integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) with flying ad hoc networks (FANET) holds considerable potential to revolutionize numerous industries. The FANET is a network of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or autonomous drones that communicate with one another to carry out a certain task or goal. Internet of Things technology can be integrated with FANET to provide a number of benefits, such as data gathering and sharing, independent tasks, network availability, traffic control, information investigation, and bits of knowledge. However, it is essential to take into consideration the difficulties that come with integrating the IoT into FANET. These difficulties include managing power consumption, ensuring secure communication, addressing privacy concerns, and maintaining robust network connectivity in dynamic environments. The FANET is used in a wide range of fields and sectors, such as observation and security, search and salvage, management of disasters, accuracy farming, connectivity and communication, and ecological checking. It is important to consider the difficulties that come with integrating the IoT into FANET, such as managing power consumption, ensuring secure ...
