  Abstract

Technical standardization and study of UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) networks are being carried out for operating multiple UAVs because of UAV markets expansions. In UAV networks, however, bandwidth is limited and wireless link quality is changed frequently by mobility. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the structure and characteristics of UAV network, and MAC protocol is required based on UAV network needed for efficient and equitable resource allocation mechanism within limited resources. In this paper, we analyze the structure and characteristics of the UAV network and MAC protocols for UAV network, compare the characteristics of each protocol. Finally we propose the development direction of MAC protocol for UAV network based on the previous analysis.
