Impact of Spatial Proximity on Drone Services

Year: 2024

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: We demonstrate the peer-to-peer impact of drones flying in close proximity. Understanding these impacts is crucial for planning efficient drone delivery services. In this regard, we conducted a set of experiments using drones at varying positions in a 3D space under different wind conditions. We collected data on drone energy consumption traveling in a skyway segment. We developed a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that plots drone trajectories within a segment. The GUI facilitates analyzing the peer-to-peer influence of drones on their energy consumption. The analysis includes drones' positions, distance of separation, and wind impact.
