Popis:	Using directional antennas in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) swarm has many advantages, such as longer transmission range, spatial reuse, anti-jamming and low probability of intercept. Neighbor discovery is a crucial step in the initialization of UAV networking. We introduce a neighbor discovery algorithm based on iterative common neighbors (ICN-ND), which can reduce the time of neighbor discovery process and the networking delay. To avoid the huge exchange-data quantity, we use the orientation and distance to represent the neighbor's location instead of latitude and longitude. Compared with the scan-based algorithm, the ICN-ND has better performance on the time to complete the neighbor discovery process and the convergence speed, which is validated the practicality by QualNet simulations.
