  Abstract

The low cost and the miniaturization of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has greatly increased the use of UAVs worldwide. UAVs are used for a direct communication purpose with ground station, and also it served as a relay node between users and base station. Thus, it is desirable to understand the UAV communication channel. Many researchers have studied different channel modeling techniques and channel characterizations. The UAV channel has different characteristic compared to conventional cellular communication channels, such as strong LoS component due to the high altitude and rapidly varying channel from free 3-Dimensional movement of the device, etc. Therefore, new methods of channel modelling and analysis are required. This paper summarizes prior work on UAV channel modeling and analyzes the characteristics of the UAV channel. we also model and analyze the UAV channel in an urban area-Gangnam station that we have implemented.
