Cover Story: Using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as an integrated sensing and communication platform has widespread applications. However, in UAV-based solutions, several challenges such as the limited battery, onboard processing capabilities, and connectivity for data collection and offloading from different points of interest necessitate the efficient trajectory planning of UAVs. In this study, we develop a multi-UAV system to collect data dynamically in an infrastructure-deficient environment. Our approach jointly considers the trajectory optimization of the UAV-based access platform and the stability of the data queues at each UAV. We evaluate the performance of the proposed solution by performing simulations against several baselines and parameter settings. View this paper
