<br>?We are pleased to announce the following tutorial that will be held in
<br>Shanghai at the next IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC).
<br>
<br>Title: Wireless Communications with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
<br>Abstract: The growing use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for various
<br>applications requires ubiquitous and reliable connectivity for safe control
<br>and data exchange between these devices and ground terminals. Depending on the
<br>application, UAV-mounted wireless equipment can either be an aerial user
<br>equipment (AUE) that co-exists with the terrestrial users, or it can be a part
<br>of wireless infrastructure providing a range of services to the ground users.
<br>For instance, AUE can be used for real-time search and rescue and Aerial Base
<br>Station (ABS) can enhance coverage, capacity, and energy efficiency of
<br>wireless networks. We will start with discussing the open challenges of
<br>communication with UAVs. To give answers to the posed questions, we will focus
<br>on the UAV communication basics, providing the channel modeling background and
<br>giving guidelines on how various channel models should be used. Next,
<br>theoretical, simulation- and measurement-based approaches to address the key
<br>challenges for AUE usage will be presented. Moreover, we will provide a
<br>comprehensive overview on how UAV-mounted equipment (e.g. ABS) can be used as
<br>apart of the communication network. Based on the theoretical analysis, we will
<br>show how various network parameters (for example coverage area of ABSs, power
<br>efficiency, or user localization error)can be optimized. Finally, we will
<br>discuss how to ensure the safe use of UAVs via various RF-based techniques for
<br>detecting the presence of UAVs in the airspace (including Machine Learning and
<br>Passive Coherent Location techniques).
