Aerostat virtual network and navigation method

Aerostat is a special vehicle that floats on a certain height in the space. It is divided into two categories: airships and tethered balloons, which can work a long time in a particular range of space. It is worth mentioning that installing the task load on the aerostat, that can make it have fixed-point remote sensing, information acquisition, communication, navigation and other functions. However the high dynamics of the aerostat cause difficulties in their networking. Based on this, this paper presents the design of virtual aerostat network, that to carry out communication, navigation, remote sensing and other functions of the multi-task mode application. The simulation results show that the construction of a virtual aerostat network can effectively realize the task of navigation and communication. It can enhance the ability to perform high-performance emergency tasks, as well as to have a significant regional application advantages.
