Abstract

One of the well-known topics in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is energy consumption efficiency in regard to communication needs. An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that gathers data from a ground WSN can be seen as a gateway for the WSN. The paper presents a solution for improving the communication efficiency of a hybrid UAV-WSN system by using directional antenna and synchronization mechanisms. The final goal is to increase the life of the ground nodes. The targeted architecture is described and some modelling assumptions are discussed.
