摘要

摘要: 5G的成功商用為日常生活帶來了實(shí)質(zhì)性的變化，如自動駕駛、萬物互聯(lián)等，然而隨之也產(chǎn)生了更大的數(shù)據(jù)量需求，進(jìn)而催生了第6代移動通信。相較于5G，6G在帶寬、時延、覆蓋等性能方面均需要有更大的提升。因此，該文針對全域覆蓋、場景智聯(lián)、信息耦合的6G網(wǎng)絡(luò)中無人機(jī)(UAVs)的應(yīng)用場景進(jìn)行了綜述。首先，針對無人機(jī)在空天地海一體化網(wǎng)絡(luò)架構(gòu)中的應(yīng)用進(jìn)行了陳述，重點(diǎn)討論了無人機(jī)在不同場景中可能承擔(dān)的角色及功能，如蜂群基站、全息投影部署、遠(yuǎn)距離中繼通信以及數(shù)據(jù)采集等。然后，對6G中應(yīng)用于無人機(jī)通信的太赫茲、超大規(guī)模天線、內(nèi)生人工智能、智能反射面(IRS)、智能邊緣計算、區(qū)塊鏈、通信感知一體化等潛在關(guān)鍵技術(shù)進(jìn)行了探討。最后，對6G場景下無人機(jī)通信面臨的續(xù)航時間、網(wǎng)絡(luò)融合性、智能反射面兼容性、太赫茲通信研發(fā)以及用戶安全等方面的技術(shù)挑戰(zhàn)進(jìn)行了展望。

Abstract: Although the application of the fifth-Generation (5G) mobile communication has brought tremendous innovations to the daily life of human beings, e.g., autonomous vehicles and internet of everything, the upcoming huger data requirement leads to the emergence of the sixth-Generation (6G) mobile communication. Compared to 5G, the transmission rate, time delay, and wireless coverage need to be improved significantly. Thus, in this paper the applications of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) to the ubiquitous, intelligent and coupling 6G network are surveyed. First, the utilization of UAVs in the framework of space-air-ground-sea integrated network is demonstrated, and the roles and functions of UAVs in different scenarios are emphasized, e.g., the swarm base stations, the deployment for holographic projection, the long-distance relaying and the data collection. Then, the potential 6G key techniques of terahertz, ultra-massive multiple-input and multiple-output, endogenous artificial intelligence, Intelligent Reflecting Surface (IRS), intelligent edge computing, blockchain and integrated sensing and communication for UAV communications are investigated. Finally, the future challenges of UAV communications for 6G, including the limited duration, integration of networks, compatibility of IRS, development of THz communications, and user security are discussed.
