To overcome these issues, this paper introduces a Graph Neural Network (GNN)-based routing approach leveraging transfer learning to optimize path prediction with a focus on both latency and throughput. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method outperforms Dijkstra-based routing in terms of inference speed and accuracy, especially in large-scale networks, highlighting its potential as an effective low-latency, high-throughput solution for UAV networks." }
