Cloud-Orchestrated Physical Topology Discovery of Large-Scale IoT Systems Using UAVs.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been rapidly integrated into Internet of Things (IoT) systems, empowering rich and diverse applications such as large-scale environment monitoring. However, due to the random deployment of sensor nodes (SNs), physical topology of the WSNs cannot be controlled and typically remains unknown to the IoT cloud server. Therefore, in order to derive the physical topol...
