UAVC: Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Communication Using a Coot Optimization-Based Energy Efficient Routing Protocol

Because of their ability to be deployed in open environments with a high degree of flexibility and mobility, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have garnered a considerable amount of attention in both military and civilian applications with the goals of enabling ubiquitous connectivity and fostering dynamic communications. The challenge is caused by aspects other than mobile ad hoc networks (MANET), specifically aerial mobility in three-dimensional space and frequently shifting topology. One and the same node in the UAV network is responsible for all three functions. The communication path is typically made up of multiple hops, and the routing decision has a substantial impact on how well the network performs. When choosing the most effective routing system, performance analysis should receive a significant amount of attention and effort. As a result of this impetus. The COAER-UAVC approach that has been given creates efficient communication pathways between the UAVs. To a large extent, it is predicated on the behaviors of Coot in their natural environments, such as fighting and hunting iguanas and evading predators. In addition, the COAER-UAVC technique that has been provided places an emphasis on the development of fitness functions with the goal of minimizing both energy consumption and communication delay. In order to show the optimum performance of the COAER-UAVC system, a diverse collection of simulations have to be carried out. The results of the experiments demonstrated that using the COAER-UAVC strategy resulted in significantly enhanced performance in comparison to using other methods.
