URLLC-Enabled by Laser Powered UAV Relay: A Quasi-Optimal Design of Resource Allocation, Trajectory Planning and Energy Harvesting
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ultra-reliable and low-latency (URLLC) traffic in the upcoming sixth-generation (6G) systems utilize short packets, signalling a distancing from traditional communication systems devised only to support long data packets based on Shannon's capacity formula. This poses a formidable challenge for system designers and network operators. Many URLLC scenarios involve infrastructure-less unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-assisted communications. One of the biggest challenges with UAVs is their limited battery capacity, which can cause abrupt disruption of UAV-assisted communications. To overcome these limitations, we consider URLLC-enabledover-the-aircharging of UAV relay system using a laser transmitter. Furthermore, we formulate a non-convex optimization problem to minimize the total decoding error rate subject to optimal resource allocation, including blocklength allocation, power control, trajectory planning, and energy harvesting to facilitate URLLC in such systems. In this regard, given its lower complexity, a novel perturbation-based iterative method is proposed to solve the optimization problem. The proposed method yields optimal blocklength allocation and power control for the two transmission phases, i.e., from the source node to the UAV and from the UAV to the robot acting as a ground station. It also maps the UAV trajectory from the initial position to the final position, and the UAV completes the flight using the laser's harvested energy. It is shown that the proposed algorithm and fixed baseline scheme, named fixed blocklength (FB), yield a similar performance as the exhaustive search in terms of UAV energy consumption. In contrast, fixed trajectory (FT) delivers the worst performance. Simultaneously, the proposed method yields the best performance in terms of the lowest average overall decoding error compared to fixed baseline schemes, including FB and FT, showing the efficacy of the proposed technique.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
