Abstract This paper investigates the traffic offloading optimization challenge in Space-Air-Ground Integrated Networks (SAGIN) through a novel Recursive Multi-Agent Proximal Policy Optimization (RMAPPO) algorithm. The exponential growth of mobile devices and data traffic has substantially increased network congestion, particularly in urban areas and regions with limited terrestrial infrastructure. Our approach jointly optimizes unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) trajectories and satellite-assisted offloading strategies to simultaneously maximize data throughput, minimize energy consumption, and maintain equitable resource distribution. The proposed RMAPPO framework incorporates recurrent neural networks (RNNs) to model temporal dependencies in UAV mobility patterns and utilizes a decentralized multi-agent More >

Abstract This study introduces a novel algorithm known as the dung beetle optimization algorithm based on bounded reflection optimization and multi-strategy fusion (BFDBO), which is designed to tackle the complexities associated with multi-UAV collaborative trajectory planning in intricate battlefield environments. Initially, a collaborative planning cost function for the multi-UAV system is formulated, thereby converting the trajectory planning challenge into an optimization problem. Building on the foundational dung beetle optimization (DBO) algorithm, BFDBO incorporates three significant innovations: a boundary reflection mechanism, an adaptive mixed exploration strategy, and a dynamic multi-scale mutation strategy. These enhancements are intended to… More >

Abstract In recent advancements within wireless sensor networks (WSN), the deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has emerged as a groundbreaking strategy for enhancing routing efficiency and overall network functionality. This research introduces a sophisticated framework, driven by computational intelligence, that merges clustering techniques with UAV mobility to refine routing strategies in WSNs. The proposed approach divides the sensor field into distinct sectors and implements a novel weighting system for the selection of cluster heads (CHs). This system is primarily aimed at reducing energy consumption through meticulously planned routing and path determination. Employing a greedy algorithm More >
