Trajectory Optimisation for UAV Data Collection in IoT‐Based WSN: A Lévy Flight‐Based Approach

open access: yesIET Smart Cities, Volume 8, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
In large‐scale IoT and WSN deployments, data transmission to base stations is often limited by restricted network coverage, and drones can help extend connectivity by collecting data from cluster head nodes. This work proposes an energy‐efficient drone‐assisted data collection approach that jointly optimises system costs and energy consumption, taking ...
