Abstract

Fifth-generation (5G) communications integrate the role of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to achieve certain objectives. Interference among 5G users can be a serious problem for which a simple but effective solution is essentially required. In modern-day communication theory, inverse tree interleavers (ITI) are emerging as one of the potential interleavers for burst error control and interference mitigation. However, the possibilities of employing interleavers for interference mitigation in UAV communications are yet to be investigated. Hence, the idea of employing interleavers for interference mitigation in UAV communications is envisioned and analyzed. More specifically, we explore the role of ITI in UAV communication for this purpose. The chapter also provides a decision support system used for interleaver assignment to each UAV, which is applicable within the smart city framework.
