METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND DEVICES FOR BROADCASTING HEIGHT-BASED THRESHOLD OF BASE STATIONS FOR UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES (UAVS) OVER MOBILE NETWORKS

원문 (중국어)

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, providing instructions to an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), via a serving base station, to collect target height thresholds of target base stations. The UAV receives the target height thresholds from the target base stations, and transmits the target height thresholds to a network device, via the serving base station. Further embodiments can include determining a current height of the UAV exceeds a serving height threshold of the serving base station, selecting a first target base station from the target base stations based on the determination and a first target height threshold of the group of target height thresholds of the first target base station, and providing instructions to the serving base station to perform handover of the UAV from the serving base station to the first target base station based on the selection. Other embodiments are disclosed.
