摘要：
Aiming at the problem that the five-layer TCP/IP main communication framework of the existing mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) has a low communication efficiency and especially misfits high dynamic and interactive applications, the authors presented a novel communication architecture for UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) ad hoc networks. Firstly, they imagined a representative application scenario and analyzed the communication system requirements according to the UAVs network characteristics, and then, designed the communication architecture systematically. This architecture employed the cognition plane with dynamically cognizing, managing and maintaining functions and the data plane with more efficient data traffic functions to interact in parallel. The cognition plane was grounded on cognitive radio techniques, including discovery bootstrap, topology control, mobile measurement and channel monitor modules, and the data plane was based on cognitive and multiple radios, including high-speed intellectualized PHY layer, reliable multicast communication layer and mission-centric mission layer, etc. . The analyses of the key technologies of the layering system and the simulation were conducted, and the results showed feasibility of the communication architecture. It also applies to other mobile platform self-organizing networks.
