Millimeter wave (mmWave) unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-aided networks have enormous application potential due to their large bandwidth and ultra-high speed, being regarded as an effective technology for improving the reliability of military and civilian fields. However, due to their complex electromagnetic spectrum environment and the sensitivity of mmWaves to blocking effects, its performance analysis faces certain difficulties. This article investigates the coverage and network capacity of mmWave UAV-aided networks under significant blocking effects and complex electromagnetic environments; for this purpose, we equipped each UAV with mmWave antennas featuring adjustable beamwidth and direction. A Matérn hard-core point process (MHCPP) with repulsion constraints was also employed to reflect the minimum distance constraints to isolate the mutual interference between UAVs. Then, using a stochastic geometric analysis, we derived the coverage and capacity characteristics and further obtained a closed-form expression for the network coverage probability. Finally, the simulation results showed that the network throughput could reach 86% when the density of UAVs was half of that of ground base stations (GBSs) in the city center, validating the efficiency and accuracy of our theoretical derivations. |
