Mobility Management for the Low‐Altitude Economy: Latency‐Aware Handover Design

open access: yesIET Communications, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This paper develops a latency‐aware mobility‐management framework for aerial vehicles operating in hybrid terrestrial non‐terrestrial networks. We formulate a MILP for optimal AV AP association and propose a greedy handover policy using predicted coverage, rate and handover latency.

Vertiports: Ready for Take-off … And Landing

open access: yesJournal of Air Law and Commerce, 2022
While aviation has been used in transportation for decades, the use of vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft for large-scale, low-cost, green, sustainable, and integrated mobility in populated areas is a new phenomenon. Despite the importance of ground infrastructure for embarkation and disembarkation of passengers, cargo, and mail, questions ...
