SMURF: Reliable Multipath Routing in Flying Ad-Hoc Networks

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are used in a wide range of applications, from tracking and monitoring animals in remote areas [1] to military applications [2]. In general, drones are used to search, identify and monitor interesting events over massive and/or inaccessible areas. In order to effectively accomplish the task, multiple UAVs are deployed in a certain area and are expected to coordinate actions in an autonomous fashion or execute direct instructions from a control center.
